"It all started when we received information that led us to finding a TorGuard server configuration file lying in the open on the internet... We hoped that after providing this vital assistance towards securing TorGuard’s infrastructure, they would also cease with their illegal defamation campaign."
So nord is shitty for digging up dirt on torguard because they were mean to them online and torguard is shitty for having these vulnerabilities in the first place. Are there any vpn services run by a company that is neither slimy nor incompetent?
- penagwin 7y agoTo be fair this kind of vulnerability is kinda common. All it takes is some AWS bucket to be left public. Surely you've seen it on HN for years? MongoDB for company X found with no password, government AWS bucket left public, etc. That said it would be a feasible yet simple story to fabricate. The details aren't that important, just saying "we found a file with ip addresses that had services open with no password" is plausible but also not that specific. Seems like all they need to do is publish their communication now that the vulnerability has been fixed?
- nickik 7y agoTry mullvad.net. A bunch of hackers in Sweden. You can pay without exposing any information about yourself and they support wireguard (even help pay for and doing their own development on it). I meet some of them personally on hacker conferences as well and they knew what they were talking about.
- ionised 7y agoI would second for Mullvad too. It's been the only VPN provider that has ticked all my boxes.
