My main question is, should we avoid VPN companies that are apart of the the 14 eyes, etc.? TIA!

If not Mullvad, then what? Generally the privacy community holds them up as the gold standard for private VPNs, and I wouldn't know what to switch to if I were looking for better (read: outside the 14 eyes).

Proton and IVPN are also great choices.

I forgot about them (IVPN).

Apparently Nord is outside the 14 eyes too, but I'm not excited about them -- they're more into KYC than other options. Decent track record (at least according to Wikipedia) though.
