QUESTION: Does installing Proton Pass in Mullvad Browser ruin its purpose?
We want the extension for convenience, but Mullvad aims for "anti-fingerprinting" by making everyone look identical. Extensions inject custom scripts and modify the DOM. Trackers use MutationObservers to spot these client-side changes instantly. Even without logging in, your browser becomes unique.
Is the Proton Pass desktop app the only real way, despite the obvious inconvenience?
#UnplugBigTech Tipp 26: VPN-Anbieter
Viele bekannte VPN-Dienste haben fragwürdige Datenschutzrichtlinien oder unterliegen US-Gesetzen. Bevorzuge europäische Anbieter wie Mullvad oder ProtonVPN, die strenge No-Logs-Richtlinien versprechen – auch wenn deren Einhaltung letztlich eine Frage des Vertrauens bleibt.
SecurityFest in Gothenburg this week. I'll be there working for #mullvad
If you are there, there will very likely be swag!
Would like to know how this affects @LineageOS users, their bluesky is a holding page, their subreddit is heavily moderated, and the moderators are frequently hostile to questions, so perhaps here?

Malgré la chute d'un #vpn récemment, certains devraient etre plus robustes, comme #mullvad qui a deja subit une perquisition et n'a rien pu donner aux flics
Par contre, paie le en crypto du coup, pour eviter le précédent de #protonmail qui a donné les data CB🤷♀️

Mullvad is rolling out fixes for a VPN fingerprinting issue that could let websites associate activity across different VPN servers through exit IP assignment patterns.
Users switching servers are advised to re-log to regenerate WireGuard keys and internal IPs.
