I hope I don't live to see you turn into every other shady VPN service.
As a Mullvad fan this makes me very nervous. If they begin being used by, and taking payment from criminals it's going to bring a lot of extra heat their way.

You can literally send them an envelope of cash anonymously, how is this any different?
I’m curious as to what HN’s VPNs of choice are. I personally use IVPN and Mullvad.
ProtonVPN because I already have a Protonmail account and they don't sponsor podcasts (as far as I know).
I gotta say, I love Monero but every single time I see malware deploy a miner it is Monero for obvious reasons. More than any currency I want it to succeed because of true anonymity it provides but when you accept Monero, better beef up your anti-abuse capacity.
If you had intrusions on GPU servers it would be a very different story.
For Indians, mullvad and others will not be available soon. New order require mandatory logging and storage of customer details for 5 years for digital infra providers post June. https://entrackr.com/2022/04/it-ministry-orders-vpn-provider...

Maybe I'm missing something, but why is "not sponsoring podcasts" a plus for a VPN service? Personally Mullvad is my favorite and AFAIK, they also don't sponsor any podcasts, but I don't think that would influence how I feel about Mullvad.
When a service isn't being honest in their advertising, it makes you think about what else they're being dishonest about.

The VPN industry is generally pretty shady & tries to sell users services that do them no or even negative good by making silly claims. When a service isn't being honest in their advertising, it makes you think about what else they're being dishonest about.
And yeah, then I'd agree, if Mullvad started lying or pushing useless services down my throat, I'd definitely dump it quickly.
