Privacy and anonymity are not the same just to be aware of that!
With tools like VPN you mask your IP address that ensures privacy, which is, limiting who knows about your actions. But realize that if you use anything that you regularly use at your own IP like email accounts etc... VPN wont do anything for you.
Mullvad is extremelly private and almost anonymous.
Why?
Because the form of registry they have, they will only know your IP address they dont need your name or anything else and you can even pay the service with XMR.
But if you want the ultimate, ultimate anonymity you can access Mullvad through the onion site (thor browser) where you only receive an account number.
The most important thing about it is that they don't keep logs of your browsing on servers.

I've been using VPN's for about 25 years.
Mullvad has been consistently good for ease of use, uptime, and customer service. I don't always use it, but I always have it installed on my computer, ready to go.
However, some years ago, I started getting a few error massages from web sites, "We have detected that you are using a VPN. That is not allowed on this web site." So I decided to spin up my own, personal, totally private VPN. For that I used Digital Ocean. They have VPN software ready to use ... minimal setup required. Speed and uptime excellent. Customer service non-existent. Price at that time, only US$5/month. With one additional huge benefit: You can change the IP whenever you wish, at no cost. Change to random IP within the Digital Ocean array. That was my plan, to thwart web sites that had started sniffing VPNs. But I never actually did any IP change.
About a year ago I started using Proton mail. Even their free mail accounts offer access to a free VPN. After testing for several months, I paid for their premium service. Very pleased, so far. The VPN speeds are fast and up-time is excellent. Proton offers more portals than Mullvad. The only way Proton is lacking is customer service. It's not terrible, but it comes from anodyne young females who write in "customer service talk." Quite a contrast to Mullvad, where customer service is stunningly fast, concise, and helpful.
There is one other option to consider: "Brave" browser offers TOR build in, free, and no setup required. However, like any TOR connection, is is slow and probably NOT 100% anonymous.

Very good idea. But, I wouldn't recommend DigitalOcean, Google Compute Engine or AWS.
You may setup a chain - multihop VPN on several 10G VPS at different providers - in effect, to emulate a mixer network - that will saturate all of your personal network requirements.
Thru proper network policy, a mixing with commercial VPN provider(s) or TOR may be used for special requirements.
No, Njala is not mine nor my company's. We do however have complete set of mixer and overlay network-as-a-service for b2b. We'll perhaps extend presence to b2c via distributor's entity in time to come and possibly offer those services here.
I believe that Njala may be @JohnnyDoe's judging by all sexual symbols
Njalla is owned by one of the guys who used to run the pirate bay (possibly some other people too but he is the main one)
Owner is vegan, which is proof he is not me. However, he’s a good guy.
