First I’m hearing of ObscuraVPN at least, but it does seem to be a very new player in the market. However from reading through their website and Github. This service does look very promising! Though it is slightly more expensive than Mullvad.

Anyone had the chance to test their service yet? Does it seem interesting to you? Let’s discuss.

    I see on Obscura’s website that their whole thing is making the VPN traffic look like all other traffic

    Is mullvad going to get to use any of that stuff now that they’re partnered?

      Mullvad already has that. It’s called “WireGuard Obfuscation” in the settings. Obscura just seems to have a different implementation based on similar principles.

        I continued looking at their website after I made my comment, it uses mullvad’s proxies as exit points

          Yeah I guess Obscura does obfuscation between the client and entry node, which is where it matters

        Mullvad has ways of mimicking HTTP traffic, but no way to totally and completely blend in like obscura says they can
