> I mean how do you measure VPN services? - Credit only Word of mouth, but it depends what type of VPN you're looking for. So again, word of mouth these days.

> I mean how do you measure VPN services? - Credit only Word of mouth, but it depends what type of VPN you're looking for. So again, word of mouth these days. > I never understood why people working in tech would ever trust a VPN service? -I do, quite a bit actually, I need to connect to another network but region specific.. They are a tool for as you say 'in tech' to work. > A VPN is seeing all your traffic, and you have to take their word that they do not log any of it? - At least in Europe that doesn't fly. It does depend on your provider though. Thats why you shop around. - On this point, I will argue that running your own VPN is better, but so is running your own web hosting. It depends on your priorities. > I use free tier AWS servers across the globe with wireguard. It might not be perfect, but I still prefer that than using a VPN service. - Good for you. Enjoy.
