The way I understand this is that your data is e2e with the mullvad key, meaning Obscura can’t see what you’re browsing. All it can know is who you are (because of your IP address). Mullvad is the one who sees what you browse (if they were to log) but doesn’t know who you are because the traffic comes from Obscura’s server. That’s the difference between Obscura’s VPN and going straight with any other VPN where they can log your IP along with your browsing.

Imo, that extra anonymity and speed loss are not worth the extra expense, but it really depends on your threat model.

Also of note, some providers have data caps. I haven’t looked at all providers, merely Nymvpn as I was interested. Turns out they have a 2TB/month cap. Might not be an issue for some, but might be for others.

From what I understand Nymvpn uses 2-hop connection, aka your data goes through two of their servers before reaching its intended destination, versus 1-hop with most other VPNs. It’s more private, but you’ll sacrifice speed as a result of having to go through at least 2 servers. They even have a 5-hop mode, which I don’t know, probably would be slower than tor xD

E2EE usually implies that your connection goes through the company’s server(s) before reaching your contact during communication. With Mirotalk, your connection is P2P. You connect directly to your contact. Your video stream never goes through the company’s server. And the connection is still encrypted of course.

So yes, your stream is encrypted. Honestly, if it wasn’t, no way they’d be in business as encryption is probably the bare minimum nowadays when it comes to any kind of communication.

Ubiquiti is business oriented, not consumer. It’d be very foolish for them to snoop on the traffic of their business customers.

Ubiquiti is also a traded company. Their stock would crater in lieu of such news.

As a consumer, besides reliability, privacy is another main reason to paying extra for enterprise gear.

Give MiroTalk a try. Can be self-hosted and just like Jitsi, no need to install anything, it’s all in-browser. Has all the features you’re asking for.

You probably need to make a request to Izzy. From what I remember he has requirements, such as max app size, which makes me wonder if maybe the ProtonMail app just became too big for him to build and host.

Here are the requirements: https://gitlab.com/IzzyOnDroid/repo/-/wikis/Inclusion Policy

It’s probably because Proton changed the repo. I was grabbing their release via Obtainium and noticed the version I had was way older than the version on the Play Store. Had to update my Obtainium entry for ProtonMail to the new repo: https://github.com/ProtonMail/android-mail

I was/am in the same boat, but I quickly gave up for the following reason: Why bust my ass trying to give my business? If Lowes blocks me then f*ck em I’ll take my business to Home Depot. It’s their loss.
