If true that Nord lobbied for this, run away. That company will not respect your privacy.

Mullvad is decent and has a track record of being subpoenaed by LE but keeping nothing, so having nothing to show. Tho I’m sad they just got rid of port forwarding (only affects seeding torrents)

Nord VPN also keeps logs and has handed them over to police forces.

So far I'm like the proton suite, have my email and VPN through them.
