Which VPN will be the best for privacy ? the best should have high transfer rates, could use the TOR network, have Real internet privacy with DNS leak protection, no-logs policy, high-level encryption - but price should be at a decent level.

I'm wondering about NordVPN - but I would liket to have your opinion. What are the weak points? someone of you uses this VPN provider?

I've been using Mullvad[0] for years.

I think it shows a big commitment to privacy when you don't ask for signup e-mails or other signup details, and when you accept cash in an envelope as payment.

Not to mention, Mullvad has been spearheading a number of privacy initiatives and development of privacy technologies.

Easy to read and understand policies, no excessive bloat on website (no GA), and more. If I sound like a fanboy, I am. And because of that, take my opinion with a grain of salt. I have no affiliation, though.

They have a fairly robust set of help documents, and their blog is worth a look through as well. But, a direct answer to your question would be from [0]:

We support Windows 7 and newer, macOS X Yosemite (10.10) and newer, and Linux distributions such as Debian, Ubuntu, and Fedora running kernels 4.8.0 or newer. We also provide OpenVPN and WireGuard configuration files for any device that supports them.

Torrentfreak had a piece when they asked detailed technical/legal questions to VPN providers. This may answer many of your questions: https://torrentfreak.com/which-vpn-services-keep-you-anonymo...

sounds like cryptostorm to me (i'm not affiliated, just a happy user for many years)
