The Mullvad founder gave millions to extremist far right party: https://www.flamman.se/techprofil-ger-miljoner-till-orebropartiet/

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.

      Didn’t they get bought by an Israeli company? (Kape Tech)

        That’s genuinely disappointing. I remember them getting bought out a while ago, but I didn’t remember that it was an Israeli company.

      Kape Technologies plc (formerly Crossrider Ltd.) is a British-Israeli company owned by businessman Teddy Sagi. Kape owns the VPN service and cybersecurity companies CyberGhost, Private Internet Access, ZenMate, ExpressVPN, and Intego.

      Nope.
