Can you code? Any experience with Linux?

VPN technology is more about hiding your tracks rather than protecting your data, let's be real.

I can only do it with instruction, I'm at beginner level.

Yeah, among the fun <redacted> benefits, that's mainly what my decision was based on. Making sure my purchases, keystrokes, and passwords are hidden everywhere. Been getting tired af of these breaches happening once every year...

Yeah just be careful on where you use it on. Steam for example hates VPN's.

I have bad news for you. Most of those breaches occur because the companies haven't secured their data properly which includes your password. Nothing you can do about that and a VPN won't help if they screw up.

I checked and there are indeed multiple broad hubs like NY, LA, Dallas, etc so whichever is closest to your location is probably what will work best without lag or throttling issues.

ExpressVPN. Could've gone with Nord but eh, the data breach they had (which thanks to post 8 I realize now is absolutely unpreventable on the user end) not too long ago concerned me.

AFAIK the NordVPN breach was a weird one since it would have allowed a potential hacker real time access to encrypted traffic that *might* have given insight into what a person was looking at, but ultimately nothing of value was actually gained (i.e., they didn't lose a text file with everyone's usernames and passwords in it), and hackers wouldn't have been able to view any logs of past activity since they don't keep logs.

I just don't like Nord because of their misleading pricing scheme on their website. I don't know if they still do it, but it used to be that every time you went there there was magically a specific amount of time left on their sale! (like, 9 hours 57 minutes and 42 seconds!). Just seemed dishonest to market it like that.

I use Proton personally but I don't use it too frequently in general :\

@Propane4Sale Thanks for the info.

If that VPN has referral links (like a free month for you) be sure to PM your Friends with those links.
