True, and it's a good reminder that VPN does not mean "more privacy". It means more privacy in relation to specific parts and less to others.

You can get a lot of info through DNS queries for example.

I know, I'm glad Mullvad is offering this service and I think the benefits outweigh the worries some had

(of course, it all depends on the DNS provider you choose)
