They recommend NordVPN, which makes me think all their recommendations are just ads.

  Monetization is not a crime

    Having a website whose whole purpose is to recommend stuff and then being paid for recommendations by the sellers is both a scam and a common marketing tactic. It's hard to tell when this happens. I'm not saying OP is doing this, I'm saying it's hard to tell and I'll err on the side of looking for better sources.

  It's an affiliate link where i hope to earn a buck to pay at least for the server and domain cost, otherwise Nomad Visa is free of ads and has no paywall (yet). What do you prefer? :) Is NordVPN bad? I only found great reviews. Please share your opinion.

    I use mullvad, which is also behind Mozilla VPN. NordVPN spends a ton of money on marketing, but their security and customer support are garbage. For one thing, you can't cancel your subscription easily, which is a dark pattern, which is a big no for a company you want to trust. First link in DDG for "nordvpn reddit cancel": https://www.reddit.com/r/nordvpn/comments/kryt69/can_someone_please_tell_me_how_to_cancel_my/ https://www.reddit.com/r/nordvpn/comments/kryt69/can_someone...

      Thanks Kinrany! Guess reviews are biased caused by affiliates. I will research again and adjust.
