VPN firm says it didn’t know customers had lifetime subscriptions, cancels them
Yeah I'm in a similar situation with another VPN. Bought a lifetime subscription back in 2016/2017 that they were offering for ~$60 since they were a new startup, but only years later did they subtly update the account page to say "expires in 2027." Still a good deal compared to pretty much any othe

Best Free VPN
There’s no such thing as a 'perfect' free VPN. Each comes with limitations: Proton doesn’t let you choose your location and blocks P2P traffic. Windscribe and TunnelBear only offer 10GB per month for free. 1VPN is only free for the browser extension. Hotspot Shield and Urban VPN log and sell your da

Best Free VPN
In general you can't have fast and unlimited with the free tier, Windscribe for example give you 10 GB a month for free with decent speed, the rest either give similar scheme or have unlimited servers that are slow due to the freeloaders. There's unlikely to be much difference on encryption, most of

Alright, let's talk about Unlimited Pro and accounts getting banned/disabled
VPNs are like apartments: they're separate buildings, but if someone in the same building is causing a serious inconvenience to their neighbours, something needs to be done about it. Given that most servers' have become much faster since Windscribe's recent action, it's clear that this has been a ve

Thanks for the bans Windscribe!
Or you know, they could invest in their service to improve the bandwidth… all servers at this point should be 10+ Gbps. I am also speaking as someone who would use at most 3TB in a month… their speeds are usable, but no where near as quick as surf shark or proton. I test all 3 and Windscribe is the

What in the indoctrination hell is this? Idaho is turning into Iran.
Do not trust any of the YouTube VPNs like Nord, Express, etc. Almost all of them have been involved in some level of breach of privacy. Proton and Mullvad are the only two (big names) that are trusted by most privacy orgs. Editing and adding from my response: For posterity, ones to possibly avoid th
