Comment on New Bill to Effectively Kill Anime & Other Piracy in the U.S. Gets Backing by Netflix, Disney & Sony

Plus, the only way you’re going to get anything cheaper is by locking into a 1-3 year plan when you may not even need it every month.

I’m locked into ExpressVPN for a year but I was thinking about switching to Mullvad shortly. ExpessVPN isn’t bad but being in the British Virgin Islands does give me a bit of anxiety.

Mullvad has a lot of perks. Like I mentioned, no deals for buying yearly. Get it month by month for the same price. No account connections. You get an ID number and that’s it. That ID is your password and username. Pay with nearly anything. Crypto, card, money services, even mail in physical cash.
There’s a lot to love about it, and it hands down has some of the fastest tunnels I’ve used. Nord was always half my internet speed no matter what I connected to. You don’t even need Google Play if you want to use it on android. It’s open source, so grab it right on F-Droid. Easily supports any OS. If you don’t want a GUI, there’s a CLI alternative, too.

Thanks! Honestly the only reason I paid for yearly was because I’ve had it for like five years now and I got sick of paying $12 every month.
Plus the one benefit I like is I paid extra for a dedicated IP (mostly used for my streamer since it has better luck with my streaming services like Prime UK; though I’m ending Prime at the end of the year)

Yeah, I canceled Prime a few years back and it hasn’t hurt me at all. You really get nothing in return, except maybe Prime Day deals and even then you can find the deals elsewhere. I’ve taken to cutting out the middleman and ordering through the product’s actual website to better support them.
Mullvad has been €5 since 2009. Comes to a little over $6. $12 is just highway robbery. You won’t regret the switch.
