You don’t know whether or not someone was fired for it or not. They aren’t obligated to do everything in their power to appease people like you who jump to wild conclusions based on a single piece of flimsy evidence because chances are you would still go on trying to sustain this weird narrative anyway.
This isn’t 2016 anymore. Nazis and white supremacists don’t operate in hiding. They’re in seats of major power. Believing they’re secretly in control of a niche gaming market based on an email and a nonchalant response is just cringe behavior from people who need to touch grass.
Daniel Berntsson is the co-founder of Mullvad, a highly regarded Swedish VPN service. That reputation is likely about to take a hit, though, since we’ve just learned that the guy donated 5 million kronor (around €450,000) to the Swedish far-right party Örebropartiet.
And don’t go thinking this is just a rumor - Berntsson confirmed it himself by email to the journal Flamman, which broke the story: “it’s a personal donation from me.”
Those 5 million kronor represent roughly 72% of everything the party took in during 2025, and it’s also the largest private donation made to any Swedish political party that year. That’s not nothing. And Örebropartiet’s obsession is “re-emigration” - i.e., sending all immigrants out of the country - which their leader Markus Allard describes as getting rid of “parasites.”
It wasn’t that long ago we learned that the Mullvad cofounder was using his money to fund a far right party trying to kick out all immigrants. We can absolutely still learn new things about people, even if there are a lot of Nazis running around out in the open.
