About Mysterium VPN
Mysterium VPN runs on a peer-to-peer node network rather than only data-centre servers. It offers more than 7,500 residential IP addresses in over 100 countries, and these are backed by real internet service providers. The aim is to make VPN use harder for websites and VPN blockers to detect.
It uses the WireGuard protocol and includes a kill switch. Apps are available for Windows, macOS, Android and iOS, along with a Chrome extension. One plan covers up to 15 devices, and there is a money-back guarantee.
