Because I totally trust a VPN with a soybeard logo.

[aptrock]

For the youtube algorithm, so the normies get informed.

[Bennigames]

Been using vpnAC for ages for the simple reason that they seem to be the only provider offering a professional faq at their site not only addressing normie questions but also going into operational details how they run their servers and a realistic logging policy

[TheShamefurDispray]

"we do not keep any traffic log" Notice they're not at all saying your activity isn't being logged or even that the logs aren't being retained; only that its not by them. Their shin bet/FBI/ADL/cybereason "partner" isn't technically them. :)

With all due respect, you seem to be forgetting one quite essential aspect: routing any and all traffic over a pseudo-anonymous VPN somewhat defeats the whole purpose. It merely moves the trust from the ISP to the VPN provider. Depending on the jurisdiction, this can actually be worse. Eg, if the user is an EU citizen, the VPN provider might actually be legally required to adhere to stricter laws than a VPN in a location that has little to no requirements.

[DevDungeon]

Unless you actually vet your VPN provider and verify for yourself, you really can't trust them. The company could be owned by some some foreign country that harvests data. Just because they say they don't keep _traffic_ logs, doesn't mean they aren't harvesting data from the traffic, storing firewall logs, storing security alerts, WAF logs, load balancer logs, and anything they don't consider _traffic_ logs. It also doesn't mean they don't cooperate with 3rd parties or law enforcement to let them monitor or keep logs of their own. There could also be traffic logs at other levels like the ISP of the VPN company. I think people put way too much blind trust into faceless VPN companies.

I guess you need to sneak into as many places around the world to install a raspberry pi running a vpn in order to have a truly anonymous VPN with international nodes.

[rootminusonerootminusone]

Trust is the main obstacle for privacy

[moeta]

The whole site, right down to its design screams fly-by-night chinese scam that definitely sells data that only a total smooth brain would pay for.
It gives me "free vpn app on the playstore" vibes.

[Flika-ultl]

Do a video on the pros and cons of hosting your own VPN on a VPS, it'd be great to hear your opinion on it.

[Atilolzz]

I just want a free Virtual Checkpoint Wiggle VPN that wiggles when I do tax fraud :(

[coffeedata]

Man, you are the official newspaper for geeks and infosec people. Love your channel

[korchevatel]

Any decent living being should know that anything served on a plate has previously been chewed, swallowed, digested and shat out.

[exinetv]

Recurring option - yeah, I'm sure that can be provided anonymously without tokenizing your credit card

[quick.]

Amazing timing lmao I actually watched all your vids about VPNs like about hour ago.

[FedericoTrentonGame]

A dude on my university would pay monthly clueless people to plug a box to someone’s modem or their own home modem, saying he was doing some mesh network research, I’m pretty sure he was setting up shady exit nodes, he still isn’t in jail so lucky him I guess

[crab_aesthetics]

AIR VPN is pretty sick. You have to sign up with an email address but they accept monero, and right now it's 3 years for 60 Euro. Good deal.

[namcor]

You can't be 100% certain with anything today. Except if you're personally there to check it and you need knowledge to know what to check so back to start. You can't be 100% certain with anything today.

[speedymemes]

What about a prepaid Visa? From my understanding, you can use them just as you would a normal Visa card. Unsure if this would work but worth a thought.
