I find the language obnoxious too but the implication behind said language arguably isn't incorrect:

My criticism has nothing to do with Yegor moaning about Hotspotshield, it's the language he used to do it. He is representing a commercial organisation, not having a laugh with mates in a bar. Imagine if, say, Eugene Kaspersky used similar language when criticising a competitor. He would be crucified by the media.

All VPNs are just tools created by a big conspiracy made by an international consortium of secret agencies to bet and trap potential criminals, all datas are in fact decrypted and analyzed by a dedicated program when they reach their shadow servers, and your IP being used to pinpoint your location.

Freakin' illuminati watching me access the US version of Netflix... while in the UK. Secret police will be kicking down my door and dragging me off to a black site any day now. :eek:

Very true.
I think it comes down to personal perspective though. I'm sure a lot of Windscribe users will find it hilarious. Others will find it childish. Ultimately those who are irked by his comments can choose not do business with him or his company.

Don't trust no VPN these days. Even the biggest names of the industry are keeping logs. I know one VPN for sure which doesn't keep logs and that's Ivacy. I have been using it around for quite some time and its a very decent service.

I'd say no. But you could also check Windscribes privacy policy or ask a question to the company directly on Twitter or their website!

It logs your logs the login information for the session you are logged in and data usage to prevent data hogs. Also just for that session. After you log out, everything gets deleted. But like most VPNs, Windscribe leases bandwidth from other internet providers and they might have their own backup solution running logging and storing everything.
