No? You put in a/your randomly generated account number for attribution.

Where you connect to your "cash obtained" VPN? That IP has your name on it.

You're welcome to use cryptocurrencies (we have a page for that), and our system only links your identity at connection time to ensure you have a valid subscription. Your traffic isn't tied to your identity, and you can look at the code to verify that.

You cannot offer service for money with user anonymity. Your legal knows that.

Mullvad VPN allows you to pay with cash in an envelop with no name etc
exfil · 12 days ago
Yes. But your cash gets attributed by your origin IP address. Which you pay with your identity available.

These VPN's for privacy are so bad. You give your credit card (verified identity), default gateway and payload to foreign soil and feel safe. On top of that your packets clear text metadata verifies you with cryptographic accuracy.

In today's internet you just cannot have exit IP which is not tied either into your identity, payment information or physical location. And don't even mention TOR, pls.

Looking for a job and trying to get clients for my new security consulting startup. May start up a local malware cleaning service, but I don't think I'll get any clients since I can't afford a storefront and there's a few small computer repair stores near me. I live in a rural part of Louisiana, so yeah idk.

Add backup and out-of-band communication into your portfolio and you're good.

I run my RPi's 24/7 from initramfs. I can even remove card after boot.
