Mullvad VPN

@mullvadnet

You guys can't stop innovating, can you?

When other VPNs spend their money with marketing and buying into top 10 lists, you keep improving yourself. Such a great thing to see!

@Anachron

Thanks! I will share these kind words internally!

@mullvadnet @Anachron I think the entire community shares the same sentiment, I second it at least. Really appreciate how the money is being spent on improving and the amount of effort that goes in as well.

@Anachron @mullvadnet

Amen!

I have tried them all and settled based on personal experience 5 years ago with mullvad. Extended my license for another 4 years.

what does experience tell others? Mullvad focused on its customers.

Thanks to the MV teams. Can't thank enough you all.

@mullvadnet how does that even work??? How do you store account data?
@mullvadnet does everybody loose their account if your servers ever loose power?

@Cinnamon

The verification of whether you have a valid account with time remaining is on another backend server.

The VPN servers will just be provided with that information.

You can read more about how we have implemented it in the blog posts linked in this one.

@mullvadnet the blog post doesn't touch on these backend servers
@mullvadnet Running in RAM would make the system blazing fast
@mullvadnet awesome - this is another win for privacy and mullvad as a whole!
@mullvadnet Ooo this is very cool! Bet that was an interesting project for the dev team to implement.
@mullvadnet awesome  it means that all Servers which are usable with mullvad run in RAM only or only the Servers owned by you?

@marcos

Every single VPN server is running from RAM

@mullvadnet That's so awesome! Keep up the excellent work you do 😃

@pjaspers Happy user?
@stevenodb yes! But, sign up for @tailscale and you can try it for free (and enjoy tailscale as well)
@mullvadnet Mullvad is no.1, no doubt! And the support team is outstanding too! Every time I had a technical question, I got help.

@wex

Thanks! I will share this internally!

@mullvadnet I wish there was a way to support you more than creating 'fake' accounts. I would gladly pay four times as much because I believe and support what you do for the privacy community.

@W8Uyjrds7v

Thanks for the kind words, I will share this internally.

@mullvadnet A major milestone and great achievement - congratulations! 🥳
