So which VPN are we switching to?

[gildilinie@beige.party]

@Guillotine_Jones let me update my op

[gildilinie@beige.party]

@patterfloof that seems to be basically what njalla provides as well. However, it's not what I'm looking for as I'd like to be able to country hop

[gildilinie@beige.party]

@dvshkn found it: https://mastodon.art/@jase/116830652868816205

[gildilinie@beige.party]

@sharpcheddargoblin under a "sonic the hedgehog framework" proton seems the best

[gatrnerd@blimps.xyz]

@gildilinie So there are basically no VPNs. cool cool cool cool

[alexia@shrimp.starlightnet.work]

@robinsyl @gildilinie they ain't even in switzerland anymore i believe

[gildilinie@beige.party]

@gatrnerd there's a bunch where we just don't really have much info on

[thing@thegayagenda.fans]

@alexia@shrimp.starlightnet.work @gildilinie@beige.party @robinsyl@meow.social yeah, they arent, after a bill switzerland passed which allowed surveillance or smth similar

@duxsco @gildilinie
Thank YOU, David, for providing this extremely revealing link to VPN provider relationships.

[gildilinie@beige.party]

@dvshkn i think hide.me, airvpn, and obscura could still be in the running

[gildilinie@beige.party]

@dvshkn will be interesting to see if/how they respond to the latest revelations

[gildilinie@beige.party]

@fluffy you like hide.me ?

[jase@mastodon.art]

@gildilinie @fluffy my few qualms with it honestly is well the company name eVenture, that doesn't sound very inviting nor does it sound inviting all the buzz word best vpn fastest in the world and so on. It seems a decent option besides that if there's good news about them, just I don't like all the buzz words and what a company name

[gildilinie@beige.party]

@jase @fluffy (stockholder voice) eventure. its an electronic venture. *clicks to next slide*

[fluffy@plush.city]

@gildilinie @jase yeah the company name is super generic, but I've been happy with the VPN itself.

[gildilinie@beige.party]

@passocacornio they do accept doge but I feel like that's kinda par for the course...

[rib@fedi.rib.gay]

@gildilinie IIRC Proton only turned over email data (which they kinda have to store being an email service, given email is inherently insecure), not VPN logs (which they don't store apparently). the trump donation is disappointing though.

Heard rumours that AirVPN is linked to organised crime but that could just be racism given they are Italian.

Cryptostorm might be an option, not heard much about them but they seem decent.

[jase@mastodon.art]

@gildilinie and the amount of new .social accounts advertising their very not sus VPNs lol

[lunadragofelis@void.lgbt]

@empathicqubit @gildilinie no

[icewolf@masto.brightfur.net]

@Rib @gildilinie Honestly even if they /were/ linked to organized crime... I'd probably trust them more than an ISP. >,,>

The mafia might break your legs for trying to stiff them, but they /probably/ aren't gonna come break your legs for getting off to The Wrong Kind Of Porn halfway around the planet
