No matter what they think and what they advertise. They use the same silicon, same motherboards, same designs as everyone else. So, they have all the risk that everyone else has, no matter the implementation. You don't know jackshit about the silicon and the firmwares that control them. Mullvad is not bad, but until average people don't have the means to create their own silicon in a cheapo way, you are just farting in the wind.
