Perhaps? If you’re using a VPN to protect your internet traffic from being sold to ad companies, probably. The VPN industry has become a racket full of affiliate schemes that push people towards plans and services that don’t necessarily act in the user’s best interest. Figuring out the food from the bad can be difficult. And I’ve seen some services that when audited use outdated or insecure stacks.
Of course, if you’re using a VPN to try to protect your browsing activity from authorities, obviously a major cloud provider may be more willing to turn your info over to someone else.
- mirimir 8y agoI've been using VPN services for over a decade. In my opinion, the most privacy friendly are AirVPN, Insorg, IVPN, Mullvad, Private Internet Access and Riseup. To my knowledge, HideMyAss, EarthVPN, IPVanish, PureVPN and WANSecurity have violated their users' privacy. For the most part, by sharing logs with investigators. Prudent providers make damn sure not to have any logs that could be seized.
- Alexa_Anthony 8y agoWell, I will not advocate for any big brand here but it is also true that hidemyass, IPvanish, Purevpn has more than 50% total share of VPN users and indeed its true that new VPN services especially Private Internet Access is going great. I recently read some review of them at Bestvpn.co.
