I was reading through Mullvad’s website and they talk at several points about the value they place on user anonymity, namely being able to sign up for the VPN without providing any personal information and accepting cash as payment. The one thought that came to mind though is whether or not the act of navigating to their website and generating an account number breaks anonymity. If you go to their website to generate an account number won’t your IP necessarily be exposed and logged? That is there will be a record of your IP address navigating to the Mullvad website and generating the account number X at Y time.
