    It does hide where your traffic is going to the ISP, no?

    Mullvad also has their own browser that has some security features that prevent fingerprinting while also keeping an okay level of usability.

      Yes, all the ISP will see is the vpn tunnel. If you don’t trust the ISP why are you with them?

      When you access a website with https the ISP will not see what happens inside that connection as it too is encrypted.

      If you run your own DNS server that uses root hints the ISP will see even less.

      By using a vpn you’re placing your trust on the provider and there is nothing stopping them filtering the outbound connection from all their VPN endpoints to collect and sell the meta data your hiding from you ISP.

      All VPN providers just talk about logging but nothing about meta data collection, funny that 🤔

        You live in a world where you should not use the internet ever

          Chances are I was online before you was even a thought.

          Helps if you keep an eye on the bigger picture that vpn is a tiny part of.
