    Which German regulation prevents this?

    Also, it seems that https://mullvad.net is a necessary part of my Internet toolkit these days for many reasons.

    hey there, after doing some research it seems like the conclusion is your vpn. Nord VPN has a lack of port forwarding, while other vpns have port forwarding (proton, mullvad). that is most likely interrupting your speed. also, apparently nord does keep some sort of logs if your interested in that. i would recommend cancelling nord and getting something else like proton or mullvad (i would recommend proton more) if you really want to download movies/shows. another option for you (if you dont want to switch) is to find your movie on websites that don't require a vpn (aka not torrenting) but you can if you want to. you can use this for that, they have tons of movies and shows. or just use a streaming site off of the megathread.

  • Why does the Mullvad installer need 500mb and access to my downloads folder?
    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 22 Sep 2023
    The 500 MiB thing is because the frontend is an Electron app. That's sadly how it is with Electron. The UI can of course be re-written into a language/framework that produces way smaller programs, but it's not currently really worth the tradeoff. Most people are not that constrained in disk or internet speeds. https://github.com/mullvad/mullvadvpn-app/issues/1572

    The downloads folder access thing is because Apple made it so. If you run an installer from the downloads folder it will need access to the downloads folder. This has nothing to do with Mullvad, but is a permission check macOS puts on all software. The Mullvad VPN app has no code for doing anything in the Downloads folder specifically.

  • Unlimited Kagi searches for $10 per month

    Requiring an account for search is a deal breaker. They say they need it for payment, but mullvad[0] does just fine without an account as well.
