I go by what I see. My purchase is only known to mullvad/proton and bank. Nobody else. If you are comfortable in announcing your intention to purchase a vpn to a third party which does not have the same privacy policy as mullvad, you do you.

No worries! I did not try to convince you of anything.

In your initial comment, you wrote:

> I don’t know why mullvad has this [reseller] arrangement, considering their promise.

We have now (briefly) talked about threat modeling, compartmentalization, linkability/observability, obfuscation, as well as having user choice regarding the shop.

So now you know why Mullvad has this reseller arrangements, considering their promise.

		No, you have only convinced yourself. You disregard privacy policy of organizations you deal with. You have no audit reports of amazon or any other retailer to know what they do with your private and purchase information. Since you don’t have that, you are only hypothesising that 3rd party platforms will keep you safe. Therefore, arrangement between mullvad and their resellers are questionable. Like I said, you do you.
