It looks like it uses Mullvad servers, but is otherwise its own software.
It uses WireGuard, an open VPN protocol, so it's not necessarily forever anchored to Mullvad.

#4I don't understand what can be so hard about "supporting" more countries? It's the internet. Anyone can access your servers. International credit card charging was invent decades ago. Take my money.

Mullvad provides both OpenVPN and Wireguard.

"Being its own software" is sort of meaningless.
It's Mozilla white labeling an anonymous VPN service (ie, we don't know who runs it).

#8If you as a company, like Mozilla, pushes for deplatforming and similar anti-freespeech measures, demand for VPN services will definitely increase. So congrats on your new VPN service, Mozilla, and hats off to the 4D chess players at the marketing division.

Probably that fraud detection doesn't work well enough in some countries to make more money than you spend. AVS, for example, is only available in the US, UK, and Canada. It sucks, but for some types of services, there's an army of people trying to use stolen CC numbers.
