Would have liked to see the analysis of All 53 of the VPN's they tested so one could see how the one one uses compares..

Not sure how trust worthy the TunnelBear company is if their up to ripping off other software projects e.g. their Remember service [1] which is a copy of 1Password

Nice how the article has affiliate links to make the author money. Makes you wonder if the winner in the 'best' category has the highest affiliate payout.

Wirecutter is well-known for using referral links, and yet still giving you their best unbiased opinion on the things they review.

For technical things, they’re better than Consumer Reports.

If you don’t already know this about Wirecutter, then this says more about you and your ignorance than anything else.

TunnelBear has been around a long time, and they wouldn’t be the first company to come out with a password manager. If they were, then you would blame 1Password for copying them.

I don’t use TunnelBear myself, but they do seem to be mostly green in the comparison page at https://thatoneprivacysite.net/

Certainly not the worst VPN provider.
