Mullvad co-owner's $500k donation Orebro has severe implications. Let's analyze this. Support my work: https://www.patreon.com/thehatedone Mullvad did not respond to my request for comment. When tech millionaires and billionaires donate to politicians, it means only one thing – concessions. You scratch my back I scratch yours. You help me get into power, I'll do something for you. It’s a system of two-way corruption that I want my money to have nothing to do with. So here is Mullvad VPN. The one VPN that I’ve been consistently recommending since I started my channel as one of the better and few VPNs that can be trusted. Mullvad had better privacy features than most VPNs bust most importantly, Mullvad’s leadership seemed to have been based on principles that actually align with privacy and freedom. That illusion has just been completely shattered. Mullvad founder and co-owner Daniel Berntsson donated five million Swedish Krona, ~$500k, to a local political party in Sweden. That on its own is a red flag to someone like me, who believes private donations to politicians and their parties should be illegal. But that’s not the biggest problem of this donation. The biggest problem is what kind of a party this Mullvad owner personally donated to. It’s to the Örebro Party. A party with policies so broad and across the spectrum they seem to appeal to everyone all at once. But one of them, the key one in fact, stands out as the most incompatible with privacy and personal freedom. Values that the Mullvad company claims to uphold. Örebro's political platform amounts to establishing a deeply authoritarian surveillance state in order to enforce their policies. If I just told you what it is you might not immediately see why it’s a problem so let me give you a deep political analysis of this situation.
