It doesn't mean anything at all. Swedish SIGINT agency has been working with 5-eyes for ages.

If not Mullvad, then what? Generally the privacy community holds them up as the gold standard for private VPNs, and I wouldn't know what to switch to if I were looking for better (read: outside the 14 eyes).
Proton and IVPN are also great choices.
I forgot about them (IVPN).
Apparently Nord is outside the 14 eyes too, but I'm not excited about them -- they're more into KYC than other options. Decent track record (at least according to Wikipedia) though.
No. The 14 eyes fear mongering was always just marketing and not a legit reason to avoid a vpn.
