[QUOTE="SearchLight, post: 951784, member: 63857"] The real issue with VPNs imo is trust, reliabilility such as tech support plus server uptime, and last but not least, cost. Then if you dig deeper is the question of where they are based in terms of jurisdiction, and whether they keep any or no logs. Unfortunately, we only have reviews, trusted audits and word of mouth by users such as those here on MT and/or Wilders. If you feel comfortable with Windscribe continue using them. However, the fact that they discovered an unencrypted server seizure almost a year later, and only now are beginning to overhaul their security structure because of it, leaves me with more questions than answers about how serious they take security. I too have a license from some time ago for Windscribe, and was considering using them again because they implemented Wireguard but I think that license will go back in the draw under the circumstances for now, while I consider using another service. Bottom line with VPNS caveat emptor! [/QUOTE]
