The Best Anonymous VPNs For 2013

I also like the conference talk "#HITB2012KUL D1T3 - The Grugq - OPSEC: Because Jail is for wuftpd" most of it is based on hackers that have been jailed lately and specifically what they did to end up in jail, but there is also some techinal stuff about privacy and anonymity, specifically about TOR+VPN here: http://youtu.be/9XaYdCdwiWU?t=45m30s

EDIT: RE: Mullvad, AFAIK they don't have any presence outside SE, NL, or DE so I think your speeds will take a hit coming from outside Western Europe.

I'm a Mullvad customer and a big, big fan.

They have great clients for ubuntu and my android phone, and are super fast. No problems or complaints here.

Thanks, I did a fair amount of research for this review.

Good review but how do you know these services arent setup by those very people wanting to intercept our activity?

good question, I think this is one of those fundamental bootstrapping issues where you just have to reason it out and pull the trigger... if it's located in a country where you're not a resident, then things get weird with legal issues.

If you don't trust your VPN providers, see my suggestions in this article, you can run a VPN inside another VPN (http://greycoder.com/using-a-vpn-inside-a-virtual-machine-fo...)
