    Hi, I'm looking for a VPN server that doesn't keep logs and keeps my Internet speed high. I don't know too much about VPN servers, so I wanted to hear from you, which one you've chosen and why in case there are other criteria that I should consider when choosing. Thanks in advance

    both the opera web browser and firefox come with builtin vpn support now.
    i would try those first before signing up with a "stand alone" vpn company.
    i have used the opera browser's vpn and it worked just fine for me, but then
    you are limited to using opera for browsing, but i have always liked the opera browser.
    good luck with it.

    Free vpn tunnels are unreliable and insecure.
    You pay for what you get.

    Pay in Bitcoin from your wallet and remain truly annon.

    Remember you are trusting your data to whom ever you choose, its running through their servers....
    Payment is measured in Euro with Mullvad, however the infrastructure is built on keeping you safe,

    If you pay in bitcoin, there is no financial trace info for them to give to anyone who may come looking.
    Email is all thats required on personal info.


    DNS is also tightened up.


    Know what I mean?

    I am currently using Surfshark VPN no logs and the servers are fast.

    Here's an article linked to by my Security Guy, Bruce Schneier which shows VPN might not always offer the privacy you want.
    Now I have to worry about favicons. sheesh

    The scariest part of the favicon vulnerability is how easily it bypasses traditional methods people use to keep themselves private online. According to Strehle, the supercookie bypasses the “private” mode of Chrome, Safari, Edge, and Firefox. Clearing your cache, surfing behind a VPN, or using an ad-blocker won’t stop a malicious favicon from tracking you.

    Hi, I have a few VPN-Services, but despite all the trouble the Firm has gone through, NordVPN is the one I like best & AdguardVPN sometimes mainly because I also got the Adguard Desktop app.;)

    I tried to pay for it with bitcoin, but the bitcoin company wanted to charge me as much for its processing fee.

    I like Windscribe. it's simple, easy, does the job and I always felt safe using it. Now you have the option to just pay 1 or 2 bucks for what server you want to use instead of full subscription. :cool:
