iiuc Firefox uses Mullvad for original paid VPN service but their new freemium one is through Fastly (?)

You mean the same Fastly as in CDN? That's a nope for me

[–] cypherpunks@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago

Yep, Fastly the CDN company (doing HTTPS mitm-as-a-service for millions of websites) which Apple also uses (along with CloudFlare) for their similar iCloud Private Relay feature.

Unlike Apple though, Firefox's new "built-in VPN" does not claim (falsely) to use different providers for ingress and egress.
