What VPN do you use and why?

If you are a pirate VPN is an essential tool. I am trying to ascertain the popularity of various VPNs in piracy community. In this excerise, I will list several Popular VPNs in the comment if you use one of them just upvote that comment and reply the reason. If you don’t find your VPN listed add a comment with just their name. Reply the reason to it. This make it easier to understand the real life user cases.

P.S: I am only looking for paid VPNs please don’t mention “free vpn”.

Nollij,

This is what I’m currently using. It’s been great, but they just ended port forwarding. I will not be renewing.

unmagical,

Fully anonymous account, purchased with crypto, has a warrant canary, open source clients, regular server audits to verify no logs, relatively cheap, fast, works on all my devices, VPN bypass for things like steam, killswitch, and a choice of VPN protocols.

It also has multihop, but that’s just a gimmick.

I use Mullvad because I don’t need port forwarding. If you are using a VPN specifically for piracy I would use a seedbox, cheap ones aren’t that much more expensive.

Mullvad VPN, its pretty good and is a flat fee per month. It works good with Linux Mint.

Is it just me that using a VPN on my android, everything becomes much faster ? Apps load faster, the internet is faster, etc. Is it because it cuts out some s****y connection ?

sadreality,

likely DNS filter that your VPN forces

wildcardology,

Be n sailing the high seas for 15++ years, never once used a VPN.

Expressvpn. Everything is stored on RAM

aldalire,

hide.me for UPnP port forwarding support (TLDR you can have access to more peers)

dangblingus,

Hey OP, maybe switch to your alt if you’re gonna be weird and fake online.

Staple_Diet,

Read their post mate, they said they would be replying with common VPNs and wanted people to up/down vote and comment on each one.
