What the Community Says
Mullvad has a really strong reputation for privacy, and it’s one of the few VPNs people trust when they say “no logs.” It’s also loved for letting you sign up without an email and pay in very private ways (even by mail), plus it avoids the whole influencer/affiliate marketing vibe that turns some folks off. Day to day, people often describe it as fast and stable, especially with WireGuard, and solid for general browsing and torrenting.
The biggest downside is that it’s not the best pick if streaming is your main goal—some people run into services like ESPN or other apps not working reliably. There are also complaints about features changing over time (like port forwarding being removed), which can be a dealbreaker for certain setups. And while many call the price fair, others feel it’s a bit expensive for a “simple” VPN if you’re not specifically buying it for privacy-first features.

"...ership of express vpn, but I probably should. Honestly, all email is sketchy af and you should just use PGP keys for sensitive messages across email. Mullvad, Proton VPN, and AirVPN all accept Monero which hasn't been tracked before. Mullvad even takes cash mailed for max privacy, but just note Mullvad is 5 bucks a month no matter what, and Proton and Air can be cheaper VPNs if you buy 2 years at ..."
"@tnpla1 @R3SP0NZ3 @TheBritishIntel @NordVPN You can pay for Mulvad & Proton %100 anonymously with cash sent in an envelope. It's the perfect work around & fuck you to the government."
"...fucking Gmail or whatever. The VPN is the best service with port forwarding that you can pay for with Monero that I know of. AirVPN is also rly good. Mullvad is best (cash payment even harder to track than monero, in theory) for absolute privacy in the face of potential state actors, but after the raid they were convinced to remove port forwarding, so muh torrents IP leak :( @GBMilady actually tol..."
