VPN comparison
I need a VPN. We all need a VPN. Here are the ones I’m looking at for these
criteria:
- Security rating: no logs, encryption etc. Trustpoint score is a good indicator
- Number of countries: where can you reach with a “local” IP address?
- Base country: is it one of the 5 eyes, 14 eyes
- Devices: How many connections, what type of clients, what OSes are supported?
- Speed: There will be overhead, and we’ll have to trust others for this data
- Price: Reasonable rate per month
