This makes no sense.

On the one hand they do DPI with ML.

On the other hand a major player is open!

Something is not right here...

Spell out your argument more. Find some hard evidence. Even “major player” needs to be backed up.

Do you even know how many users Mullvad has in CN? I don’t. Searching says the whole company apparently has ~500k users. I don’t think that’s enough to be a significant presence in China.

FWIW, Mullvad did not work for me in June in China :)
