I don't use PIA, after a family member said not to. (This was after putt recommended it on previewvoat, but before the PIA giveaway)
Nord has had some good reviews. Proton has a VPN now. :)

I understand nord was hacked at one point and went without fixing the problem for awhile, don't know if that's still true. I do know they sponsor everyone imaginable so no one said anything when it happened and people sponsored by it just kept shilling it when it was hacked.

The site also has a transparency report that shows the number of data requests made to ProtonMail by Swiss as well as international agencies. The numbers show that Swiss authorities passed more than 3,500 orders for data collection in 2020. In 2017, this number was as low as 13 orders. ProtonMail complied with over 3,000 orders in 2020, contesting more than 700 orders.

I don't recommend VPNs, because I know so little about them. I use what is chosen for me by family. I wish i knew more.

Sorry, I don't. I'm actually about to look into that myself, I'll get back to you if I find some useful info, but it seems pretty much everyone is compromised at this stage in one way or another.

I'm thinking we could all use this thread as a reference to share what we find out about the different VPN services, so we have it all in one place, easy to find.

I've been using Freedome for about 3 years. I don't know whether they're good or bad but every time I renew, there's a big price hike that I believe is unjustified. So I want to switch.
