The IT company Mullvad’s founder Daniel Berntsson is behind a giant donation to the populist Örebro Party, which advocates “comprehensive re-immigration” from Sweden. “It’s sad that it’s needed,” he told Flamman.

Okay, so no Mullvad, no Proton, no NordVPN... What's left that's not gross or double plus ungood?

[-] quick_snail@feddit.nl 2 points 34 minutes ago

AirVPN, IVPN, and/or cryptostorm

[-] uninvitedguest@piefed.ca 8 points 9 hours ago

AirVPN.

[-] merc@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 hours ago

Do they do port forwarding (i.e. can you run a bittorrent client behind the VPN and accept incoming connections)?

[-] uninvitedguest@piefed.ca 1 points 5 minutes ago

Sure do.

[-] CorrectAlias@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 6 hours ago

How are the speeds on AirVPN? Does it support wireguard conf?

[-] uninvitedguest@piefed.ca 2 points 5 hours ago

They do. Unfortunately I'm not a great spokesperson for speeds as my 100/30 connection would hardly stress the VPN connection.

[-] CorrectAlias@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 5 hours ago

Thanks. Might be worth trying out.

Windscribe?

[-] YoSoySnekBoi@kbin.earth 8 points 6 hours ago

Windscribe is almost entirely vibe-coded. I wouldn't approach it with a 10 foot pole

[-] pjusk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 6 hours ago

U know this for sure? Windscribe has been around for longer than that.

[-] rozodru@piefed.world 3 points 5 hours ago

shit their annoying emails are enough to not make me want to use them again vibe-coded or not.

Private internet access?

[-] one_old_coder@piefed.social 14 points 7 hours ago

Kape Technologies plc (formerly Crossrider Ltd.) is a British-Israeli company owned by businessman Teddy Sagi. Kape owns the VPN service and cybersecurity companies CyberGhost, Private Internet Access, ZenMate, ExpressVPN, and Intego.

Nope.

[-] Toz@fedia.io 31 points 9 hours ago

Didn't they get bought by an Israeli company? (Kape Tech)

[-] Twinklebreeze@lemmy.world 7 points 9 hours ago

That's genuinely disappointing. I remember them getting bought out a while ago, but I didn't remember that it was an Israeli company.

[-] matron1049@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 9 hours ago

Israeli owned
