Analysis of Nym VPN and its "guaranteed" privacy

This isn’t a “tough question,” it’s a meaningless question. “What if I need to send 3 TB to someone in 5 seconds? I thought my privacy was GUARANTEED! ! !”

In any case, the performance of the mixnet is poor. They’ve stated this themselves many times, and it’s something they’re working on improving. That does not mean it’s somehow not private. If you yourself choose to swap from the mixnet to the two-hop WireGuard setting, you are the one choosing to reduce your privacy in exchange for a faster transfer rate.

Whether there are enough nodes and whether they are decentralized enough is another story. Maybe they are, maybe they aren’t. But the way you’ve gone about this is ridiculous.
