Mullvad only accepts onchain so if you want to buy using the lightning network, you can use this service: https://vpn.sovereign.engineering/

What would you say the risk is in relation to nostr? Websites I visit now my ip adres, people i call know my phone number. Interested in hearing your view on this.

I know everyone raves about mullvad and ivpn these days (and I'm sure they're great) but in over a decade airvpn has done nothing to convince me to look elsewhere. They've also been accepting bitcoin since at least 2012 or so. https://airvpn.org/aboutus/
