I've been using iVPN for the past few months and the connection is total dogshit. I find myself turning it off every now and again to get things to load and that defeats the purpose of having a VPN.

AirVPN has always been reliable for me. It's very cheap to try for a few days too.

I would like to try.

In 2015, a server was seized by Toronto police.

Complied Government Requests: 0

Successful Real-World Tests: 1 Aforementioned server seizure did not result in any recoverable data.

Do your research. Air doesn’t offer its services to Italians (the country it also happens to be incorporated in) in order to avoid enforcement of the nations anti soccer piracy laws.

This indicates that the company either cannot stand up to that enforcement action or that its host nation is so corrupt that being able to endure enforcement without giving up customer data would be no shield to the customer.

Air is one of the few VPNs that offers port forwarding, a feature commonly used in piracy.

I am a happy user of air for piracy purposes. I believe them to not be able to withstand investigation.

Air is fine for my purposes. Be careful what purposes you use it for.

I can second AirVPN. I've never had an issue with it, at least one that wasn't ultimately user error.

Have they improved their Linux support? It's the first one I tried years ago and I had to go make individual openvpn configs for each server which was such a pain (unless I wanted to just use the same few all the time).

There was probably a better way to do it but that was just solved for me when I switched to another provider.
