Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
The comments say nothing about the writing itself. The linked post covers rolling out VPN exit IP servers as a response to a disclosure that Mullvad exit IPs can be used for fingerprinting.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
