I am pretty excited about this new release. The app is open source and seems to follow strict security standards.
I’m pretty sure the entry server doesn’t know the destination, as WireGuard encrypts everything, and it wouldn’t make sense for the entry node to already decrypt the traffic. It also protects against ISPs or other companies/institutions monitoring network traffic.
I think so. But with Tor, you of course get the benefit that (ideally) all 3 nodes are run by different parties, which is not the case with multi-hop VPNs. They might be hosted by different server providers, but they are still all administered by the VPN provider.
Ignoring privacy features, its a great way to make up for bad internet routing, so I can connect to local mullvad server, then route my traffic to far away mullvad server, and get a better connection (latency, packet loss) then if i went directly.
What is the advantage? Its not Tor, dont the nodes know your full route?

So it works like tor, with encryption layers?

ISP(and ultimately, authorities) will have harder time making ties with you and the server you visited.
