    I don’t know what you were expecting.

    You more or less have to have an account to use a paid feature. Especially for a free trial.

    It’s only Mulvad (which is apparently what Firefox uses under the hood) who doesn’t use an email address as an identifier.

    Every free VPN in the world spies on you.

    If you want a VPN that actually respects your privacy, you must pay for it.

      There are many paid VPNs that still spy on you.

        Well, yeah. You still have to be careful with it. But at least it’s possible to find a good paid one.

        Some paid VPNs spy on you. All free VPNs spy on you.

      All of the reasons for switching away from native Firefox don’t hold up to scrutiny, and there are real disadvantages to switching away.

          i did this with iceweasel and learned that those forks always go dormant eventually. they sometimes get revived like iceweasel did, but you should atleast expect to keep jumping from active fork to active fork.

              i’m dreading the day that i have to give up on mozilla permanently and switch to some sort of chromium browser because of it.

                  i’ll always be convinced that front end guy always have it the worst; both from the masses and the frequently changing casts of frameworks.
