They were trying. I couldn't believe the shit they had added to my plan. Even if I wanted that shit (I don't), how am I supposed to take advantage of it when I don't know to set up and configure it? Completely changed my opinion on Nord. I don't have a VPN currently. Any recs? I only need it for two things: very rarely when I want to torrent something (normally I just pay but there are certain exceptions when I've already paid for something but want no DRM shit, or bought a physical copy of and need digital) and because I'm not in favor of the current political regime and status quo. Not that I think I'm good enough to really hide myself from the govt, but I'd like to make it take more effort.
iPhone and Linux.
Proton VPN has been solid for me. I already pay for their email service so no sense in paying another VPN provider. I have iPhone, Linux and Windows devices and it works great on all three.
