would NOT recommend protonvpn since it's the same company running protonmail, which has a history of bad security and has given private mails to governments. plus their free plan is pretty bad and doesn't have port forwarding. but it's an unpopular opinion ig.
anyways, i've been using airvpn and it's been fairly good. some other ones include:
The problem is you say all that then recommend PIA. Another company known for being shady af. Proton ultimately is still under Europol laws but they have an onion site and you can pay in crypto
I'd like to see your sources on that statement.
PIA has literally gone to US federal court at least twice, and prevailed both times proving they had no logs to share with authorities.
PIA has an actual track record of privacy protection success, which is something few other VPN providers have.
I didn't know about PIA and never "recommended." I just listed a few other services that I knew had port forwarding. I removed it from the comment.
๐ Source for them giving private emails to governments ?? Your emails are E2EE they don't have the ability to decrypt them when you hold the keys. The most they did AFAIK is IP log a user because they had to comply with swiss law. Their VPN has no logs & has been audited
