Which product is the best for VPN?
-
@phenomlab I think it was released a few years back, I’ll check…

@phenomlab launched in 2018 mate.

@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.

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

@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.

A lot of conflicting views on the matter. Some say it is slow others say it’s great. Maybe it just comes down to personal preference.

I expect that this depends on where you are in the world, and which node you connect to. Again, as you say, it’s going to be aligned to personal experience. One man’s junk is another man’s gold.
