NordVPN will now comply with law enforcement data requests

NordVPN is still a no-logs VPN but it will comply with court orders

@boilingsteam lol so what the fuck is even the point of using them? if they're gonna snitch your ass out for torrenting then they're useless.

mullvad's not in the US and gets audited to not keep logs so I prefer them, dunno what other services people might suggest to those who suddenly have a very good reason to switch.

@boilingsteam  it shouldn't be a problem, if you've got nothing to hide, man
@boilingsteam validates my belief that most of the stuff VPNs market themselves around are better suited for tor
@violet_cerue @boilingsteam yeah vpn is great for getting around content blockers, pretending to be in other regions and cheating download timers. Tor is for privacy
@boilingsteam The article you linked doesn't invalidate the no-logs claim though. In most places, companies will probably have to comply with their law enforcement anyway, if they wish to stay in business. I guess your best bet is a no-logs vpn provider in a country that has the most respectful laws to privacy you can find. But even then if you are suspected of a serious crime, I doubt you can be protected by the provider
@boilingsteam at the end of the article, it is said that the VPN service has no logs stored. IF this was true, the only information they could provide are the subscribers’ datails.
@boilingsteam the fact they built the system so that user could generate logs is the heart of the problem, to me. Once the capability is available, it will be used. Not to mention warrant canaries only work, as well as the laws of government that govern them.
