added mullvad main website + its search engine, grouped them together

sounds like a potentially bad idea to use a vpn provider in sdwdate since many users are already connected to their services, they could deanonymize that connection since the control entry and exit

i also see riseup and proton in there.

Actually, might be related.

Similar to Refrain from “Tor over Tor” Scenarios.

If a server is the first in the chain and the last in the chain (or potentially in the middle of the chain?) that might lower anonymity due to end-to-end correlation attacks.

We’re also avoiding to use the Tor network (as Tor) as well as the Tor infrastructure as a time osurce.

Similarly, using a VPN provider as both, a “first relay” (since using that VPN) as well as time source might be a bad idea.

So since we’re not short on time sources at this time, for abundance of caution, it’s best to avoid using VPN providers as time sources.

Mullvad removed. (Due to above.)

Removed, since it was only a mirror.

Merged. Thank you!

Its a tor mirror for the website not the VPN server/s. If that is an issue then we need to remove all search engines because duckduckgo onion for example is in the sdwdate mirrors and as well as a default search engine..

Failed to see it a problem.
