Regarding alternatives, I remember for a little while NymVPN was considered a hot item and then suddenly crickets. Did something happen to make folks disinterested in them? I do think they're pretty heavily involved in cryptocurrencies, but I could be misremembering.

Is express VPN ok as an alternative or am I a dumbass?

[–] MasterBlaster@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

It's what I use, but I heard it was bought by a shady company a couple years ago. I'm afraid to check. It is or was one of the most secure and verifi3d provider around and resides outside the 5 and 14 eyes network.

Well shit. I need to change to airVPN now. I'm worried as I've heard people had their IP's leaked to their ISP with AirVPN, BUT that could have also been user error.
