Rules:
AirVPN, IVPN, and/or cryptostorm
The first thing I found when searching for IVPN is that they're based in Gibraltar.
That means British Law, meaning special information courts with court orders for mass trawling which they can't divulge to the public if they receive one, worse than the US even because in the British version of those courts there are things like the defense lawyer not being able to be present for court hearings and never getting told if the court rules against them, only if the court ruled in their favor.
That's almost as bad as choosing an Israeli-owned VPN.
I did use cryptostorm ages ago, but at least back then their speed was like 1Mb/s. Maybe they're better now.
Somebody else pointed out that AirVPN is based in Italy, which is a member of the 14 eyes. No idea how nasty their surveillance laws are or not, though I doubt they're as nasty as the UK.
