I am a happy mullvad customer since about 5 years. I find it somewhat reassuring that they are not spending a gazillion dollars advertising on YouTube or affiliate websites.
And of course prefer that they are in a jurisdiction that isn't a haven for shady companies.
In short: I like them because there is little bullshit and they seem to be OK. I don't think I could ever trust PIA or all of those companies.
- SwiftyBug 2y agoThey certainly spent a gazillion dollars advertising on every billboard and subway car in Manhattan.
- bookaway 2y agoYeah, this sort of stuff seems incredibly short-sighted. It gives me queasy "methinks the lady doth protest too much" ExpressVPN vibes.
- bjoli 2y agoI didn't know about that, but they have this to say about it: https://mullvad.net/en/blog/advertising-that-targets-everyone https://mullvad.net/en/blog/advertising-that-targets-everyon... I never said I was against their AFK advertising. The EU chat control advertisement was great. The NYC stuff is pretty meh. Advertisement is was on my brain. I mostly treat it like that. I just find it weird that there seems to be so many companies spending a seemi gly infinite amount on affiliate advertisement (through bought reviews) and on influencer ads.
