I just tried Mullvad again on Android. It says "out of time" and that I have no more VPN time left on the account. I would have to "add time" (i.e. buy it). I thought Mullvad was free. I am not going to pay for it. Why would I when there are many free ones out there?
I really enjoyed their article on the EU's Chat Control legislation [1]. I'm so sorry to hear that your privacy is being scrutinized y'all.

> Mullvad is a Swedish VPN company, and our business isn’t directly affected by a possible Chat Control regulation.
Sweden is in favor of Chat Control.
And this is total bullshit. E2EE instant messaging software will remain encrypted and private. OMEMO and OTR, too.

If you are not the customer, you are the product.
Pay for a VPN if you don’t want the VPN company to be complicit in tracking you.
And no, Mullvad is not free.
What guarantees do I have?
Any free VPNs could make it pay-to-use without changing a thing.
Having to pay for a VPN does not mean that it is more secure or whatever it is you are thinking. I could be a customer AND product at the same time.
