EDIT: Apparently, labelling them as far-right isn’t as clear-cut from an economic perspective, but they do hold many core identity politics that are common amongst far-right parties such as:

  • Voiced support for the idea of large-scale remigration on multiple occasions, even for Swedish-born immigrants: “Sweden belongs to the Swedes”
  • Supports Sweden leaving NATO
  • In favor of Sweden leaving the European Union in a so-called “Swexit”
  • Stated that Sweden should only support other countries on the condition that it benefits Sweden and that it has to be “Sweden first”

    Is that a click bait title, or are you deliberately trying to misrepresent the company?

    The link title shows it to be false.

      Only issue I see is that’s a co-owner/co-founder/co-CEO. Can you elaborate what else is misrepresented?

        By incorrectly stating that it is a single CEO, it perpetuates the manipulation that the company itself is evil.

        If this was not commonly being used to market against mullvad on other platforms, I most likely would not have even noticed it. I have seen similar dishonest posts elsewhere, and people grabbing pitchforks in response, without even looking into it at all.

        I am one of the people who has been refunded due to this. I am approaching this honestly, and wish others were as well.
