VPN services?

[pete6032]

Can anyone recommend a good inexpensive VPN service capable of streaming HD video? Even better if I could buy daily access so I can watch a single sports game.

I use Private Internet Access. I haven't noticed any slow downs...maybe slightly higher latency. Disney+ is fine but no matter the settings Netflix and Prime don't like it.

Pia got bought out years ago.
No longer trust their no log pledge.

And if you don't care about no log, there's cheaper VPNs.

I now use Nord VPN. Here is their pricing:

VPN costs: buy a VPN with card, crypto, PayPal

Buy a VPN in just 60 seconds — it’s that easy. Find out how much NordVPN costs, what features you’ll get, and which plan offers the best VPN price for you.

10gigs x 3 vpn companies

So if I'm going to pay for one is Nord preferable? I sort of assumed with all their ads they've gone more mainstream. Maybe I am mistaken?

I was a PIA user before switching to Nord. I switched because the company that bought PIA had a bad rep in the VPN biz. That's been a few years though. They may have changed their practices since then.

So 30 gigs total? I'm not sure I'm reading that right.

Windscribe has 10GB a month free plan. https://windscribe.com/features/use-for-free

Sometimes they have a promo for 30GB free which is what I have. It's what I use to watch sports. I also bought a cheap VPN unlimited lifetime plan and it sucks compared to Windscribe. Windscribe occasionally has sales for 2 and 3 years of service.

Proton also has a free VPN but I have not tried it yet. https://protonvpn.com/free-vpn/

Didn't PIA get sued recently by film studios for their "no log" policy encouraging their users to commit piracy and other crimes?

Hollywood’s Fight Against VPNs Turns Ugly

Beyond accusations of encouraging copyright infringement, film companies have begun accusing VPNs of enabling a slew of illegal activity.

Been using VPN.ac for a while now. No co,plaints. Even watching HD.

I use Cyberghost using the Wireguard protocol - no issues whatsoever.

Is there a VPN that will hide ATOT from spam-bots?

Some youtubers get sponsored by NordVPN.

ExpressVPN is the best one personally for me.

NordVPN and SurfShark are not bad too.

I use SurfShark with my Firefox browser, but the forum bans the IP address that is used.

The only "paid" VPN I've had recently was Symantec's built in version in Norton 360 which I no longer use.

It worked VERY well in terms of speed and doing "grey-area" stuff like sketchy streaming and watching blocked content.

The problem was/is I wouldn't trust them not to have saved AND to cough up your data in a flash "upon request" of law enforcement behind anything serious.
