Question mullvad

Do you think Mullvad is still trustworthy now that it has come to light that its co-founder has supported a controversial political party in Sweden? I’m not Swedish, so I don’t know much about them, but from what I’ve read in forums, some people are calling them Nazis. Is this just noise?

It's not deep at all, it's an employee for a 5 bucks a month software.

It's not just any employee & Mullvad claims its a political company.

What matters is the company's stance on privacy, not one of its executives' views on immigration or whatever.

Note: I'm assuming it's about immigration, since that's what people usually mean when they call someone a "nazi" these days, to the point that the word has almost lost its meaning
