To help you pick the best VPN, we asked dozens of VPNs to detail their logging practices, how they handle torrent users, and more.

There’s way too much hype over VPN Providers, but do not forget, you are routing all your traffic through their servers

As a general advice, if a VPN provider keeps logs of your activity, does not allow you to pay with crypto, and generally spends way too much on youtube ads is probably not an ideal choice.

Do not follow any advice/recommendation blindly, do your own research on which one offers the best service for your own needs.

I use Mullvad. They have you buy time upfront at a fixed price, have lots of payment options, and at one point were subpoenaed and proved to the Swedish government they don’t store any user data and therefore have nothing to turn over. They have a nice app too, I like them.

They’re disabling port forwarding due to some bad actors… That’s why we can’t have nice things.

For those who don’t know, port forwarding is mainly used for torrent seeders, aka the people who upload files to other people.
