I'm using Private Internet Access. It's fast and pretty lightweight compared to the other choices. Snagged a 2 year plan on sale for like 50 bucks.
I was on PIA, but they were bought by Kape a few years ago. Kape, previously known as Crossrider. Crossrider, known primarily for developing adware and PUPs.
I also dropped them after the acquisition
thanks for this info, I was wondering why PIA isn't recommended anymore
well shit, guess the recommendation I saw was outdated. that sucks
In addition to getting acquired by a shady group, Mark Karpeles also works at PIA. I'm all for edemption arc, but that doesn't mean I'm ok with him in charge of some security product. I dropped them for mullvad.
I use PIA as well but I have never seen good upload speeds through them, which is a shame.
