I’ve been using Mullvad for the past few months. Have not had many issues with it aside from the 5 device limit and the removal of port forwarding. I’m currently looking at Private Internet Access as a potential replacement. It looks like it offers 10 device limit and port forwarding included with the price.

Anyone using PIA? How’s the experience?

Edit: Probably should have mentioned, feel free to offer any other recommendations, I’m not attached to, or against any specific recommendations. I would like it to have a GUI available on Linux though if possible.

    Are we under the consensus that Mullvad has highest level of anonymity or is there something better? Thanks in advance lads!

      You can literally buy an account anonymously with cash, I don’t think any other provider comes close to that

        Yeah thanks mate, point very well proven I don’t know if another provider that actually does do this, Mullvad seems the only way to go.

        Other providers come close, as I would consider Monero to be close to as anonymous as cash in the mail. But I don’t know of any others who accept monero and do not require an email address.

      Mullvad offers anonymous payment plans. Which natively adds a layer of anonymity. So as long as there is never any saving. For example Nord vs Mullvad. I use Nord but there is no anonymity with the provider. Where Mullvad “doesnt” need to know. That’s as much as I have figured.
