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.

What’s up with every VPN company being facist right wing fucks?!
I’m surprised that Sweden allows individuals to donate that much. Million dollar contributions from a single person should not be legal anywhere.
Shit, not everyday you see your hometown on Lemmy of all places. I know Allard from my syndicalist youth days, him beeing head of the local leftpartys youth wing. This party is more of a local populist left party. AMAA i guess.
The wiki for the Örebro Party actually describes it as not identifiable as left or right and the founder was actually far left. It also advocates for things like free dental care and anti-corruption. So things aren’t as simple as purely anti-immigration which is very populist in Sweden.
The initiative to found the Örebro Party was taken in early 2014 by Markus Allard, who is also the first party leader. Allard had previously held positions as substitute member of the Örebro municipal council and district chairman of the Young Left in Örebro; in December 2013 he was expelled from the Left Party and its youth wing Young Left for “liking” the Revolutionary Front, a militant revolutionary socialist and anti-fascist organization, on Facebook and refusing to disavow it when questioned.
What the fuck did I just see?? Mullvad after Proton… So sad… :(
Mullvad was dead to me when they pussied out and took away port forwarding. That’s how I knew they were compromised
Thanks guys for posting this and for suggesting alternatives. I’ll look into airvpn I guess. Fuck anyone who wants to make society worse by giving into their worst character traits and base instincts.
Ffs I was planning to switch to Mulvad since my Nord subscription is finally expiring next month, then I find this shit. I’m looking into AirVPN. They sound solid enuff.
Italy is a 14 eyes countries which disqualifies any VPN service thats hosted there.
They look trustable (no email, payment in monero, no tracking) but they’re incorporated in Italy which is one of the stupidest countries in the world for this purpose
Have you ever wondered why usually VPN companies are based in countries like Cyprus, Panama, virgin islands or Labuan?
Yeah that’s a good point haha tax havens for the W I guess. On another note, I think Proton VPN is also a good alternative since they’re based in Swiss, where data protection laws are mega strict.
Proton has given user data to the FBI and French authorities.
If you have an account with them you should remove the recovery email and credit card. Those are the two things they can share AFAIK.
I am in Italy, AirVPN is Italian, and every page of their site states that you cannot access their services if you’re an Italian resident.
Any idea why?
What about IVPN?
So Mullvad is over. What’s the next best VPN?
I literally just ran out of time on my subscription too lol.
God. Fucking. Dammit.
Örebropartiet is a conservative left party. Think China, rather than say AfD in germany. Flamman is also a shit show. The owners pretend to be left, but they gladly embezzle money from Malmö city.
So like you get a bunch of money and become evil.
I read iVPN is a good alternative to Mullvad
how trustworthy is this?
Claiming immigration policy in general is fascist is just an ignorant perversion of the word that lessens its weight.
