ELI5 please, why not just use Mullvad? They accept Lightning now. Isn't all they see just an IP, too? Is it that they *can* log it? You *can* log the IP and relay it to them, can't you?
It is basically two points of failure instead of one. Neither of them has the full picture on their own so they would have to collude to link you with your web traffic.
