I kinda dig Mullvad VPN and their account authentication approach. The sole thing you need is an account number. That's it. No password, no KYC, just a random number. Makes you feel like you are in a Swiss bank picking up Nazi gold (only in a good way) or like you are in a 007 movie. Sad this approach isn't more widespread. #grownostr

check out obscura vpn, other releases are soon :D

IVPN does the same. But I'm also into Mullvad.

I mean I still need to find a good reason to use it. I have already too deep a track that just using VPN with the same accounts would have ZERO effect. Maybe if I ever do torrents, but the most 'need covering tracks' right now is this account. And even then, I consciously don't keep it that tight, because it's tedious. Right now most of the exit nodes are flagged so e.g. Netflix blocks them right away, a lot of Cloudflare infrastructure puts up captchas and is generally a pain in the ass so I can't set it up as a default strategy for my whole home network. Would be cool though.

No logs claim can be true, but I trust mullavad on this more with their ram based deployments. They have recurring payments, which can be good or bad, depending how you look at it.
