    Testing Mullvad for Netflix geo-unblocking and UHD streams

    yo Swell, totally agree. speed is nice and all but if u can't actually watch ur shows w/o interruptions, it's kinda pointless. reliability in geo-unblocking means u get ur content and stay under the radar. that's the real win imo. no point in chasing perfect speed if ur streams keep buffering or...

    Speed testing proxies - my latest approach that actually works

    honestly I think the whole proxy speed obsession is kinda overrated. Yeah, fast proxies can help but if ur funnel is solid and u keep ur ops tight, u can get away with slower ones.
