While Mozilla does put its own stamp of approval on Mullvad's policies, we have neither sufficient access nor resources to audit those claims ourselves. This makes Mozilla's offering about $0.80 per month cheaper, at current exchange rates.īefore we go any further, we need to make something clear-we've repeatedly said that Ars Technica, as editorial policy, does not and cannot specifically recommend any public VPN service provider. It is a bit less expensive through Mozilla, though-Mullvad costs €5 per month.

The Firefox account is an SSO (Single Sign On) service that uses oauth2, much like a Google account-but it's not tied to a Google account, so even if you sign up using a Gmail address tied to an Android device, that device won't be automatically logged in.Īside from the Firefox-based oauth2 integration, Mozilla's VPN appears to effectively be a Mullvad VPN, with a different client application and different billing entity. When you sign up for a Mozilla VPN subscription, you'll be asked to create a Firefox account if you don't already have one. The service authenticates via Firefox cloud account.
Mozilla says that support for MacOS and Linux is coming soon-but unfortunately, even if you're an advanced user who understands Wireguard configs, you can't just roll your own connection now. It currently has VPN clients available for Windows 10, Android, and iOS-but users of other operating systems, such as MacOS and Linux, are going to have to wait. The Mozilla VPN service costs $4.95 per month and offers server endpoints in 30-plus countries.
Mullvad itself was, to the best of our knowledge, the first publicly available VPN provider to offer Wireguard support back in 2017. The cross-platform VPN is based on Wireguard and delivered in partnership with well-known and especially techie-friendly VPN provider Mullvad.
