I've always wondered what Mullvad's longterm business model was outside of just providing a trustworthy VPN service.

It looks like this might be the beginning of a Cloudflare style service that lays down the backbone for other VPNs to hop onto.

Mixed feelings.

This looks interesting. I wonder what the financial/business relationship is like between Mullvad and Obscura.

Mullvad ip's have such poor reputation im surprised they're the exit hop

I've not heard/read this before, but I use Mullvad and my anecdotal experience confirms this. I get blocked or put into a captcha trap quite frequently. I assumed this would be an issue for any/all well-known VPN IPs. Are you saying that it's not? Do you have any alternative recommendations?
