  • Honestly I hope it shuts down. This provider caters to racists, fascists, misogynists and the like.

    Not to mention I don’t know why anyone would use a provider that was happy to warn people they aren’t trustworthy.

    It sounds like they are making excuses to take their “war chest” of money for legal expenses and give themselves one final bonus. Would not be surprised if this donation request ends up being one extra final payout before they close the service and ride out into the sunset.

    EDIT: lot of racists, fascists, and misogynists triggered by this comment lmao

    I have used both Mullvad and AirVPN for extended periods of time.

    Mullvad is the gold standard. If you don’t need port forwarding and privacy is your biggest concern there is no better choice. Check out their server infrastructure, and tools such as DAITA / Leta / Mullvad browser to see how much they contribute to the privacy community.

    Mullvad is also a much better UX. AirVPN Eddie client feels like its stuck in 1998.

    Both are good VPNs - Mullvad just happens to be the best. The only real issue, from a privacy perspective, with AirVPN is they refuse to be audited so you are stuck just trusting they do what they say but OTOH they have been around for a long time and never given a reason not to be trusted.

    If you do need port forwarding, AirVPN probably has the best implementation of it. They also have customizable DNS on a per device level which is also pretty cool.
