💥🔥 that’s not bad at all!
TopCashBack still doing 97% cashback on that too, win win!
@gotwf Thanks. This is more for the application and network security though. There’s no attestation that I can find that there has been an independent audit (and by definition, validation) that no logging of traffic actually takes place. I know it mentions 100% RAM but this would not stop anyone siphoning the logs elsewhere to (for example) syslog etc.
An independent audit would verify that. For those who insist on true privacy, this might just be the straw that broke the camel’s back, and it’s one of the reasons why I chose NordVPN in the first place.
I’m still very tempted by the offer though so will be digging a bit deeper into this.
@phenomlab said in Best VPN:
perhaps @jac should do the same
I will be looking into this more myself, I have head of this company many times when searching for VPNs.
Will dig deeper
@jac the last time I looked into getting a VPN client service was around 2 years ago, so given how SurfShark is relatively new, it’s probably why it didn’t popup for me before.

I don’t think it’s too new is it? I’ve definitely seen it around a fair few times over the past few years when I’ve looked into it, which in all honesty is something I probably should have got years back.
@phenomlab I think it was released a few years back, I’ll check…
@phenomlab launched in 2018 mate.

Just looking more into it now. What do you make of adding this to the package, is it necessary? - Surfshark One access -https://surfshark.com/alert
@jac not necessary, no. Virtually all password managers have this feature built in

Great, I was thinking BitDefender will have them features won’t they?
@phenomlab here’s another one to throw into the mix. Zenmate.com.
@jac Yes. Your can use bitdefender’s wallet feature for that
@phenomlab said in Best VPN:
@jac Yes, but it has poor reviews and no independently audited security. Okie, there are various complaints concerning the quality of support.
Cheap, yes, but questionable quality.
I’ve read up more on SurfShark and apparently it’s not as fast as they suggest. I suppose the only way to find out is to try it.
@jac Yes, probably a good idea. Do they have a trial ?
@phenomlab said in Best VPN:

I’ll check now…
Appears to offer a 7 day trial.
