ProtonVPN if you can stomach one CEO once praised trumps choice of some anti euh oligopol(?) lawyer.
If you already use Proton Mail, I strongly recommend against using ProtonVPN because you're coupling yourself too hard to Proton. At least, if your threat model is high risk
What if I just torrent shit occasionally? Am I good? I like proton’s services a lot for the convenience which is a no no on here but I am a lazy fuck.
If you just use VPNs to torrent stuff, then that's fine. I'm just saying that if your threat model makes you a target to let's just say the CCP for example, then coupling Proton's suite with their VPN is a bad idea
I don’t do anything that makes me a target so I’m all right
If I'm going to move away from mullvard because a high up funds populists I'd rather avoid that too.
