     @thenewoil Mullvad is advertising aggressively here in L.A. on busses and in the subway. Which makes me mistrust them. I recall reading there is a question about their actual privacy policies, log retention maybe. What I recall is thinking, "Not for me."

     @duxsco @thenewoil My assumption is that they are seeking to know what they can about the demographic that uses those conveyances. I assume they are collecting data to sell.

     @phaedral @thenewoil I prefer aggressive offline advertisement over online advertisement with tracking. Offline, at least, they don't know anything about me.
