  • Pangolin is great, I can expose things like game servers on it and have my entry point in a geographically close data center to keep the ping time lower than other options would let me.

    I’m currently trying out the managed self hosted version, it seems a bit slower, but you also get ha with it which is pretty cool.


  • I like mullvad because I can pay for it with vouchers and have nothing to tie my payment to my account#

    I don’t think any other VPN can do that.

    Theres also the fact that mullvad was raided by the (Swedish)police and even though they fully complied, the police ended up walking away with nothing because mullvad had nothing to give them.

    Proton on the other hand, will at the very least be storing your email, payment info, and possibly other info in your account that mullvad won’t. I also don’t like how they have aligned themselves with conservative politics.

    Yea, who are google and apple to tell us what to do with OUR devices that WE OWN anyways?

    I will never buy a smartphone(or a computer) that I can’t replace the stock OS on, because the transaction for me and the device maker should end when I buy their device, period.

    The entire business model of selling me a device only to then extract the maximum possible amount of data points, sell that data to fuck-knows-who(compromising my privacy, and possibly safety), and maximizing targeted ads to attempt to manipulate me is beyond absurd.
