Prior to one of mullvads ceo’s being outed as a nazi, they didn’t appear to have anything wrong with them at all. Good history, policies, and software. ivpn and airvpn appear to be the only other legitimate choices to me, especially is you are northern hemisphere and a windows user, as most people are. Southern hemisphere and linux it is a bit trickier.
Assuming the top graph is accurate, it says a lot more about the reality, at least as far as steam ‘data’ is concerned https://www.gamingonlinux.com/steam-tracker/
The ‘issue’ is not a “dip” in June, the issue is the May data/variance, as well as the April data/variance. June appears normal.
surfshark (apparently) having tracking was enough to make me not bother looking much further into them. With so many choices, the easiest way is to omit those who seem problematic (kape, 87% off!!!, logs, tracking etc)
I doubt you could even start a car.

Congratulations on the syllables though, keep up the good work there.
You did not start any companies.
Using numbers does not = actual math
Using the word “logic” incorrectly is illogical.
How much crack do you smoke?
It has already attracted negative press, some of it valid, some of it due to deliberate manipulation and idiots (op as an example of both), the effect on their reputation will not be short lived, and this issue will continuously resurface online. They still need to deal with it though, and soon.
It has already cost them business/money due to refunds ($$$ ???), and a short/medium/long term reduction in new customers.
“That is if people care” Always the issue with humanity.
People tend to be polar online, rarely fair, or decent.
consider logic, ask a friend, or teacher to help you.
Victoria isn’t difficult to show up, a little embarrassing when qld does it though. I have never been in a qld hospital, hopefully (for their sake) they are cleaner than victorian ones.
Refunded because I want mullvad to do the right thing, and to continue as a legitimately ethical vpn.
I want privacy and a decent planet.
#3 is not something I have seen before, seems an odd choice for them Their server list is over 75 pages on their website, a pain in the arse to assess, the app itself appears to give no indication of servers, you have to guess, or search.
The recent contact I have had with ivpn suggests the company is genuine, and customer service is good. Unfortunately they do not tick the boxes for me re: linux software, and southern hemisphere servers. Definitely worth considering if in northern hemisphere though, maybe even south for some.
if you want even more, use fextralife. outside of that I rarely see them with mullvad
Proton excel at marketing, they are greenwashing for the privacy crowd.
Going out on a limb here, could it be… ethics?

I wasn’t aware that airvpn refused Italian customers, the company definitely has some interesting policies though: including no servers in israel, or russia, and no servers in australia because of our f*cked up internet privacy laws.
Is it the half finished software, the ai, the dodgy social media activity, the crap customer service, or the right wing ownership that attracts you to proton?
I prefer a gui, and have little faith in a company that is unwilling, or incapable of providing a decent one. Mullvad has a very good gui on linux, and android, as well as a browser extension. Airvpn has a linux app that looks 20 years old and doesn’t even have split tunnelling, apparently their android app also doesn’t have split tunnelling, so wtf are they actually doing, and where is their roadmap?
