VPNs with no email required to sign up
7 VPNs let you register with no email at all — an account number, token, or username instead. Mullvad leads. An email is an identity handle. VPNs that skip it — issuing a random account number, token, or a username you invent — leave nothing tying the account to you.

No email signup — questions
Can you really use a VPN with no email?
Yes. Some providers issue a random account number (Mullvad, IVPN), a login token (NymVPN), or let you pick a username with no email (Windscribe). There is no email handle to link to you.
Is no-email signup the same as no-KYC?
It is the strongest form of it. No email means no identity handle at all. Some no-KYC VPNs still use a (disposable) email — those are no-KYC in practice but not fully identity-free.
