Not sure if it was just released today, but I got the email update about it just now. I’m pretty excited about this because I mostly just want VPN for web browsing, and the linux app kinda sucks.

If Proton cared about privacy for VPN for clients, they would remove the login requirement and make ProtonVPN an anonymous services.
If there are concerns about abuse for the network, that’s way the login, how could they figure that out without seeing people’s traffic.
I use RiseupVPN and CalyxVPN for being open source and anonymous.
Until ProtonVPN removes login in their free client, it is not an option.
Proton is open source
Counter argument, if your VPN is free, you’re the product
You are looking for Tor in those cases not a centralized VPN service. A centralized VPN service is good for reduced visibility with the understanding that they can be more easily compromised (the more you pay the more they can work to make that not the case).
I was surprised with how well RiseUp performed when I used it.
