Pretty much what the title says. I have a subscription to Proton as well as Mullvad. I’ve ordered a router and I plan on running Proton on the router and Mullvad on the device I’m using, or vice versa. I would just like to know with absolute certainty that doing this won’t somehow put my Proton account at risk, before I actually do it; I rely on my Proton account for a lot of things. I know there are automated systems in place that detect abuse, especially with respect to DDoS and whatnot. I do not do anything related to DDoS or anything similar, so my account will never be flagged for anything of that nature correctly. I really can’t see how/why daisy chaining with another VPN could reasonably be construed as an abuse of the service, but I actually do worry about that in all honesty, whether or not I should. If there’s any way something like that might happen, I’ll abandon the idea as it would concern my Proton account and figure some other means of accomplishing this. Thanks.

    If you are worried about traffic correlation analysis, then yes 2 VPNs will help.

    I am trying to obfuscate my traffic fingerprint as much as possible, yes.

    The outer VPN is the one where you have increased traffic due to 2 VPNs.

    So, does it (roughly) just double the amount of traffic by adding the second one, or…?
