    obviously the shitty VPNs like NordSurshark, TorGuard, Tunnelbear, cyberghost and PrivateInternetExpress suck…pretty much every VPN that’s part of some giant conglomerate sucks ass in terms of privacy and security

    But then there’s iVPN, Mullvad and ProtonVPN and even Adguard VPN which do very little to no advertising at all and allow their products to speak for themselves. I mean…Kitboga and RionaPoison are sponsored by Proton, but Proton is a good company that takes their security and the security of their swiss-law-abiding users very seriously.

    Don’t be a scumbag and Proton won’t snitch on you.
