#2The old saying trust but verify always seems to come up. Companies claim x and we find it to be untrue. They apologize, share statement they will do better and the cycle continues. Is anyone else tired of the tomfoolery?

#3@dang: can the title be changed to "UFO VPN claims zero-logs policy, leaks 20M user logs". So users don't have to click through to the story to find out which firm?

#4Can the title be updated to include the name of the "firm" (article says "Hong Kong-based VPN provider called UFO VPN")?

#5I don't know why anybody ever cared about logging policies. How would you even know if they keep logs or don't, or what they do with them if they do?

Do you have a suggestion on how to verify the claims of a company you only interact with over the Internet?
(edit: not that I disagree with you, I honestly don't see a practical way to do that. It's not like security seals have proven their worth in pixels either)

#8I think that at this point it is far easier to just setup a socks proxy with an vloud based machine than to research which firms have shady practices and which dont. I went into a womrhole over NordVPN vs PIA vs ProtonVpn and then just went with a proxy server. Costs peanuts with the cloud compute ecosystem.

You can’t possibly know. You have to just assume all VPN companies are logging your activity indefinitely regardless of what they say. Though I suppose you’d rather go with a VPN company that claims it doesn’t do any logging, over one that says it does.
