I’d appreciate any insight ppl can offer, especially relative to mullvad VPN: could a casual privacy valuer benefit from this over mullvad now or in the future?

Has anyone seen this one listed on VPN comparison sites?

Same:

They take straight monero and generate accounts from no personal info

Pros:

It’s something like 1$/device/mo, so sometimes cheaper than mullvad.

Doesn’t use gmail or centralized servers like mullvad, argued here; went over my head

Something about improving browser privacy

Cons:

Beta; small project; haven’t found credible endorsements

    If you’re a casual privacy user, then accepting monero and making accounts with no personal info isn’t really something to be concerned about having.

    Instead I would use a well known VPN with audits done that is shown to not hold logs, like Mullvad.

    thr article is talking about how that protocol can male you more vulnrable to browser fingerprinting i think im not sure the main complaint is with all these no kyc vpns they get linked to you as soon as you login so your shifting the burden of trust from your isp to the vpn
