"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

It is 1.85 dollars a month if one pays for 3 years. I am looking into ways of saving money so I was thinking into switching. However, I am a bit worried since 3 years ago I did the same with Nord VPN and it is sooo buggy. It rarely ever works for me. I had to switch to ProtonVPN after paying for 3 years for Nord ๐Ÿ’€.

The best VPN service is to create your own. Rent a small cloud server on a far away country, and install Open VPN. This is the best form of secrecy online, that I can think of. Of course, it's still possible to identify you. But it seems much harder to do so.

Either your VPN server would need to have it's connections monitored, or access to logs from the problematic websites would be required. It's also necessary for the company which is hosting your server to disclose that your VPN server's IP is associated with you. And even then, if you encrypt everything in it, there is still room for plausible deniability. But all of this, is a much bigger hassle to the authorities than to just use a traditional VPN service.

With a normal VPN, especially if they have servers in NATO countries, they will provide all logs requested to them and you're toast. Basically, you're paying for a false sense of security.

Yes exactly this, though, I prefer wiregaurd over openvpn, instant connection times and tunnels don't have to stay open and reconnect so you can always have it on even when moving between networks, there are certain cloud providers that can be bought from almost entirely anonymously too
