  • Less maintained? Did you even read the article you posted?

    “We take these findings extremely seriously and have moved quickly to patch the identified issues,” said a Mullvad spokesperson. “We’re grateful to X41 for their thorough audit, which helps us continually improve our service’s security.”

    Despite the concerning nature of some vulnerabilities, the researchers praised Mullvad’s overall security posture. “The Mullvad VPN Application appears to have a high security level and is well positioned to protect from the threat model proposed in this report,” the audit stated.

    *Edit: just in case anyone is curious, here’s what the deleted comment said:

    Yea, let’s switch to some other service that is less maintained because of a compliment to a guy we don’t like.

  • Agreed, but there have been big projects that have been open source. I can imagine* an AI (LLM) being developed fully FOSS. It would be rare, but I can see it happening if a big foundation got behind it. Maybe Mozilla, or another that tries to keep the spirit of their mission statement.

    *Imagine: I’m not too familar with all of the current, public, and free models out there, just a few. This was just me making a hopeful guess about if it might be actually happening now.
