VPN Companies Are Lying To You

I've been getting frustrated by seeing dozens of VPN companies essentially lying about what they provide for you and wanted to talk about it. I still use a VPN everyday, but hopefully this helps clear up some of the false claims their marketing teams are making as of late.

“I don’t think a VPN company will sponsor me after this”
You’d be surprised

What are they chances VPN companies are still going to run ads on this because VPN is in the title?

As someone who has been in the millitary
Millitary grade anything to me just means
"It was made by the lowest bidder and passed the minimal requirements they asked for"

The term "military-grade encryption" has about as much meaning as "military-grade water filtration".

True, a VPN by itself doesn't offer perfect security, but it's okay, cause when I'm using the computer I always do it with a hoodie and in a dark room, for extra anonymity/hackerness.

My advice before you click on anything on the internet: just wait a moment

vpn is good for one and one thing only: looking at region locked content

[aGuyNamedDingus]

The only use I see with VPN's is accessing region locked content

Guess who’s not getting sponsored by nordVPN anytime soon

The lesson I've learned: the more you see a thing promoted online, the greater the chances for that thing to be complete and utter garbage.

How to test the claims of your VPN provider: buy lots of drugs and browse illegal content. If you get arrested: Bad VPN. BIG BRAIN!

It’s true, no matter how many ads I get for raid shadow legends I’ll never download it. 😂

A certain bit of wisdom that applies to this, and nearly everything: Never blindly trust the words of someone who's trying to sell you something.

As time goes on, I'm learning that getting banned from facebook was probably a GOOD thing.

"I don't think a VPN company is going to sponsor me after this." I can't tell you how much I appreciate you being willing to tell us the truth despite how it affects your income. I sincerely respect that.

Kit talks like he's about to tell you a dirty joke in church

This and Tom Scott's video is the only video that I've found calling out VPNs, and how they really mislead people. We need more people talking about this!
