  • You should have “How do I know if they are not keeping logs of my IP address connections”

    Your IP address does not always relate to you, either because you are using a public wifi(that you can bypass the payment portal thanks to mullvad btw) or on top of tor etc.

    Your ISP is also a company, and as I said above you should not share your private information with them if possible and legal in your country.

    They also claim:

    When a customer connects to a VPN server, the server asks the central service to validate the account number, whether or not the account has any remaining time, if the account has reached its allowed number of connections, and so on. Everything is performed in temporary memory only; none of this information is permanently stored to disk

    Which I have to guess is true for all the police raids they had that left the police with 0 evidence.

    Ask specific questions, and be nice to others. You won’t learn much here otherwise, and if you know everything, why even post?

    I do not advocate for mullvad, there are many other companies that are valid choices. That’s why I posted this to learn what others use or maybe some that are not even listed by torrentfreaks not to argue about the no-log policy of Mullvad.


  • Some companies like Mullvad have no way to even keep logs

    They do not ask for information that would deanonymize you would be a better way of putting that

    I’m not familiar with them, can you explain how you are certain they don’t keep logs?

    TL;DR They do not ask you for any info that would deanonymize you & support FOSS projets

    None of that answers my question.

    I just shared a link where they answer those questions in much more detail that I can do via Lemmy commet replies. If you have specific questions please share them, if someone wants to help you out they will reply, otherwise just read the article and try different VPN providers out yoruself.

    edit: formatting replies edit2: Because you edited your reply you should NEVER trust any company with your personal information. You should just NOT give it to them, I do not trust Mullvad or any other “privacy” related company to store data that would deanonymize me, you are proving my point that you do not read what I’m typing or the article I’ve shared.
