[QUOTE="509322, post: 769345"] No VPN in its right mind is going to protect its users when a government comes down on it and basically says "Give us the datas or else you go to jail, we shut you down permanently, or both." And warrant canaries are worthless. VPNs are one of the biggest scams running right now. On U.S. televisions there are scam scare campaigns by NordVPN to get people to use their VPN for 24/7/365 web surfing. And people who don't know any better subscribe - which is so typical of a lot of IT security stuff. It goes to the point I am making in this thread... doing stuff based upon ignorance (not knowing) which creates fear (and acting out of fear instead of understanding). [/QUOTE]
