There’s way too much hype over VPN Providers, but do not forget, you are routing all your traffic through their servers
As a general advice, if a VPN provider keeps logs of your activity, does not allow you to pay with crypto, and generally spends way too much on youtube ads is probably not an ideal choice.
Do not follow any advice/recommendation blindly, do your own research on which one offers the best service for your own needs.
If someone starts his list with NordVPN you know its complete and utter bullshit
That’s not how the annual Torrentfreak VPN questionnaire works.
It doesn’t work good if they act like all those providers are a considerable choice
They don’t. I suspect you haven’t actually read one of these articles in detail.because it is in no way a recommendation from TorrentFreak. It literally opens with this:
NordVPN appears first because it is a sponsor, as is clearly stated:
The same questions are put to every VPN provider on the list. It is unranked - whether they first or last is completely irrelevant.
@Ilandar @loudWaterEnjoyer good feedback, should never trust any reviews tbh as the product or company could be different from even when the review was done initially for any goods or services.
But they are presenting the answers equal to others. That’s the point. You can’t make an article and ask some scientist and a madman questions and then present the answers next to each other, pretending the madman has equally valid output. They should put disclaimers on each provider with the different problems that occur with the certain provider. Like they were caught logging, they were breached, they are under bad jurisdictions etc
TorrentFreak already puts these questions directly to the providers. Again, do everyone a favour and actually read this article you are so intent on criticising. You seem to have absolutely zero understanding of it. It’s almost as if you skipped directly to NordVPN, saw it was listed first and made up this entire fake story in your head.
I did and I know they put the questions to the provider, but what is it worth if they have been caught lying but still answer “no we don’t log” I believe they should highlight that fact.
