Mullvad is still the best. For the time being, until the situation clears out, I wouldn't stop using it.
I disagree. VPNs is all about trust because you can't verify they don't log. I don't trust a company where one of the people that owns 50% have donated 450k euro to a party that is describe as a racists, fascists and nazis and apparently shares opinions like not my words wanting to deport 100 000 "welfare-Somalis".
After reading a bit more according to Mullvad's Wikipedia page "Flamman also alleged he later stated it was sad that the party's remigration policy was necessary".
Remigration is: "Remigration is a far-right concept referring to the ethnic cleansing[1] via mass deportation of non-white minority populations, especially immigrants and sometimes including native-born citizens, to their place of racial ancestry."
Sure, you are free to think that way and I'm not saying I disagree with you. I just know that, if I stop using a product or service from a company, just because I don't agree with someone working there (even if it is someone that founded that company), it is very likely I won't be able use anything.
If it was the acting CEO or the company posture, I would do the same, but apparently it is not the case. Until then, Mullvad still provide great service.
There's a clear difference between a CEO supporting this, and then random employees of a company that you disagree with on more trivial subjects....
In this case neither one nor the other is supporting this. The whole debate is about the action of one of the founders (not the CEO, who already said he doesn't support those views).
