VPN, even for legal stuff cause “we can see you” can f off tbh

VPN’s are the new essential subscription service for online content. Back in the olden times, we had to pay for minutes of using internet and long distance phone calls, today we have to pay for privacy and access to content we’re “not allowed” to see. And what you’re allowed to see or not is a strange, politically motivated list that is always changing.

Back in the olden days people scoffed at China fencing off the web, shutting down access to sites and whatnot. Now politicians in plenty of western countries actively talk about it like a good thing.

On top of that, the big visible VPN companies are all owned by the same one or two companies, and while they boast loudly about keeping you safe, they do fuck all for privacy. You’re just paying to give your data away. There’s a scarce few good private VPNs, but they also don’t tend to advertise much.

Well don’t leave us hanging, which one’s the best?

I’ve been using Private Internet Access for probably 10+ yrs.

they say they don’t keep logs, and I believe years back they even went to court for it.

PIA VPN offers secure and fast VPN servers in 91 countries, no logs, and 24/7 support. Protect your online identity, access blocked content, and enjoy unlimited bandwidth with PIA VPN.

and for a 3 yr plan it’s like 3 bucks a month.

when I was living in the US yrs ago I was even using prepaid Visa cards to pay (almost) truly anonymously. one step removed and all that.

they also have the latest protocols, complete configurability on almost all devices, and split tunneling and port forwarding and the likes.

and no, I am not a spokesperson for them… just a happy customer.

if they have since sold out, please enlighten me. but I’m now in a country with less to worry about.
