Re: Detailed VPN Comparison Chart
#2This is terrible. Whoever "That One Privacy Guy" is, should really consider not being a dick and stop pushing VPNs as a privacy tool.
And yes, you're a dick if you even kind-of imply that VPNs might be good for privacy without immediately providing a strong disclaimer: if it matters, they aren't.
Edit: Oh wow, it's worse than I expected. Check out https://thatoneprivacysite.net/choosing-the-best-vpn-for-you...
The vast majority of the recommendations here have absolutely no connection with reality.
This entire website is bullshit, here's a few quick quotes.
>a. More on Trust
>As a lawyer represents your legal interests, a VPN service (among others) represents your privacy interests.
>c. Jurisdiction >In the last few years, certain revelations have been made manifest regarding the mass surveillance programs of various countries around the globe. These countries are known as the five, nine, and fourteen eyes. These countries not only spy on their own citizens where they can get away with it, but they spy on each others, and swap notes to bypass governmental restrictions on power. If a service, or the people who run a service is based in one of these countries, it’s not unreasonable to expect that they may be susceptible to unlawful searches and compromises made in the name of national security
Suggesting that NSA & Co. don't spy outside of FVEY (or fourteen eyes if that's what you prefer) countries is utterly ridiculous at it's face and just makes it look like the author hasn't studied this stuff at all.
Instead of blogging about mass surveillance and unlawful searches, maybe focus on the more realistic issues like search and wiretap warrants which are ridiculously easy to get in some countries?

What's your advice?
Re: Detailed VPN Comparison Chart
#4http://vpnspeedtest.org/ tests over 20 VPN services to find the maximum speed of each VPN from 8 locations around the world.
ThatOnePrivacyGuy should use their open source speed test tool instead as the tests are verifiable (unlike his tests from a single location which nobody can reproduce).

If privacy is the concern? Tor.

I can see you complaining, very strongly, but wouldn't it be better provide some kind of constructive feedback.

I guess you replied to the wrong post, I made a rather explicit recommendation.
>you're a dick if you even kind-of imply that VPNs might be good for privacy without immediately providing a strong disclaimer: if it matters, they aren't.
This website reads like it's written by an amateur from some torrenting subreddit, there's not much constructive feedback to be given here besides "do some actual research and do it all again"
Re: Detailed VPN Comparison Chart
#10That site should have a top 3 pick, tailored for paranoia, torrenting and normal unsecured wifi hotspot hardening.
Personally: I use AirVPN because to me it matters the client is open source. For all others, I guess PIA (Private Internet Access) is fine.
