I understand what he does is only his preference but why does he not recommend using Mullvad anywhere in his books or podcasts and completely shills “Proton” for everything as if it’s the best source for everything privacy related.

In his book “Extreme Privacy” he also talks about using Cloudflare due to their no-logging policy for your DNS resolver.

“We will collect limited DNS query data that is sent to our 1.1.1.1 resolver. Our 1.1.1.1 resolver service does not log personal information, and the bulk of the limited non-personally identifiable query data is only stored for 25 hours.”

I just feel like something isn’t adding up, somewhere.

    Agreed! I tend to see what he can offer on regards to privacy for real life stuff like home address, data broker scrubbing (his extensive lists I mean), etc. But when it comes to the technology portion of it, I go with what I prefer, albiet I still hear what he has to say in case he introduces me to something I didn’t know about before.
