I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

If you are worried about traffic correlation analysis, then yes 2 VPNs will help.

I am trying to obfuscate my traffic fingerprint as much as possible, yes.

The outer VPN is the one where you have increased traffic due to 2 VPNs.

So, does it (roughly) just double the amount of traffic by adding the second one, or…?

Wondering if using ProtonVPN in a VPN chain is an issue.

Wondering if using ProtonVPN in a VPN chain is an issue. - Lemmy Today

Pretty much what the title says. I have a subscription to Proton as well as Mullvad. I’ve ordered a router and I plan on running Proton on the router and Mullvad on the device I’m using, or vice versa. I would just like to know with absolute certainty that doing this won’t somehow put my Proton account at risk, before I actually do it; I rely on my Proton account for a lot of things. I know there are automated systems in place that detect abuse, especially with respect to DDoS and whatnot. I do not do anything related to DDoS or anything similar, so my account will never be flagged for anything of that nature correctly. I really can’t see how/why daisy chaining with another VPN could reasonably be construed as an abuse of the service, but I actually do worry about that in all honesty, whether or not I should. If there’s any way something like that might happen, I’ll abandon the idea as it would concern my Proton account and figure some other means of accomplishing this. Thanks.

This kind of thing has started making me feel very sad about my decision to never become a father recently.

Lol…

I mean, fair enough; also, your use case is entirely unlike that of someone who just uses NixOS normally, I would imagine. It’s really not like using NixOS requires a deep understanding of the language itself, or at least that’s never been my experience with it, and I’ve been daily driving it for well over a year at this point. As long as I know enough to keep maintaining the same /etc/nixos/configuration.nix I have now indefinitely, that’s as deep of an “understanding” of the language as I will ever need, personally. I’m well aware that there are a lot of things I could be doing if I knew how to, and frankly, I’ll probably never learn how to do those things because I’ll probably never have to. NixOS is by far the single easiest distro I’ve ever used, if only because everything’s always reproducible and because nothing ever breaks.

Not quite yet, but yeah, probably gonna be “big time” soon if I had to guess. Reddit is inaccessible through a VPN (while logged out) now, so it’s basically dead at this point.

Do what, now?
