Anybody know of a VPN service that
So far, the ones with major problems are:
I'm unsure about the whether airvpn is owned by fascists but it seems to fit the rest of your criteria and at least on paper is italian
Agreed. This is what I use for my bittorrent server.
You know I hear this thing called nord I'm sorry I can't finish without laughing
NORD VPN! To protect your phone from being hacked because surely that's what a VPN does! BUY NORD VPN NOW!
What is it about them that's especially bad?
Bad? Nothing really that I've experienced (because I have no experience) I just like joking about the pervasivenesss of their ads. They're the VPN Shen Yun, so I keep expecting to hear about them being associated with a cult.
Njalla is owned by Peter Sunde and almost fits the bill.
Minus the exit nodes around the world.
njalla censors queer voices and holds their DNS hostage for it. njalla is not to be trusted.
i cannot comment further on the specifics here sadly but I will never give njalla a single fucking penny, personally
I can't find any information on this. Can you provide a source?
please re-read my comment in its entirety.
I do not see a reason you could not discuss this. However, am not asking you to discuss it. I am asking for a source.
If you cannot back up your claims or provide a source which can, I have to disregard your post as slander. I don't want to do that if you are being honest. I am only asking for intellectual responsibility on your part.
IVPN is good. https://www.privacyguides.org/en/vpn/#recommended-providers
Idk how this Airvpn suggestions are popping up. Never even heard them before.
I've heard of them, but I don't know much about them.
As for IVPN:
So it's the same as Mullvad, because they also removed it in 2023.
Try proton vpn I guess
Proton?
Unless I'm mistaken, also problematic
What's the problem with Gail Slater?
ProtonVPN qualifies in my book under these guidelines, but different people are more or less stringent with what they'll tolerate on the fourth requirement you specified.
I think AirVPN fits that criteria, no?
I don't know, that's why I'm asking.
@amos @merc @grok fact check these. Search.
When you smell something bad when you're next to someone, it's probably them.
When you smell something bad when you're next to anyone, it's probably you.
When you smell some bombs all around you, it's probably Trump and Netanyahu
Completed the rhyme for you 😉
