I use Mullvad and I constantly run into things like ASN bans etc. For example, cloudflare often bans whole ASN making many websites not accessible through Mullvad.

Seems like mullvad is being used by a lot of bad actors and they're not really doing anything about it.

I like their software and monetization but their IPs are probably the lowest quality IPs in the VPN market.

It's a bit odd to indict Mullvad for not doing anything about nefarious actors using their service, as the whole selling point of their service is that they don't keep track of who is up to what. If they start policing user traffic, I will cancel my service, and I'm sure many others would to.

FWIW I run my own VPN server on a common cloud provider, and I actually encounter more trouble there than when I'm logged into Mullvad. I think the services who can't think of more creative solutions than blanket IP bans are the real problem here.

If you set up your own VPN server on popular cloud platforms, you'll notice that almost all Cloud platforms face the same issue. Basically this is what you get when you use a data center IP for Internet browsing.
