Mullvad review: A VPN that's all about privacy

<article>
   <section class="page">
<p>When it comes to a VPN that protects your privacy, Sweden-based Mullvad is the best we’ve ever seen. The company wants to know as little about you as possible and doesn’t require an email address or even a password. Instead, the company randomly generates a unique code for your username. This username sans password is what you use to top off the credits on your account, and log in to the desktop apps.</p>

<p>If you’re worried about not having a password, Mullvad says it’s statistically very safe. “A newly created Mullvad account number is a 16-digit decimal...This allows for a total of 8.99 quadrilion possible account numbers,” the company said in a <a href="https://mullvad.net/en/blog/2017/6/20/mullvads-account-numbers-get-longer-and-safer/" rel="nofollow">2017 blog post[/url]. “Assuming our customers are actively using 100,000 different accounts with us, one would need to guess on average 45 billion times in order to find a working account. This is practically impossible.”</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3430276/mullvad-vpn-review.html#jump">To read this article in full, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
