It gets my goat that people think it’s a good option. There are plenty of articles explaining some of the many issues with it, but a few are:

  1. It’s run by anti-LGBTQ+ crypto bros.
  2. It has ads right out of the box.
  3. It collected donations towards people who never signed up for them - then held them to ransom in exchange for the kind of information you should never share on the Internet.
  4. They’re a for-profit advertising company. “Privacy-centric” my elbow.

    But it does come with a free tier of proton vpn. Great if you don’t need to use a vpn too often but need one in a pinch.

        Fair point, but as long as you’re not doing anything super illegal it should be okay. I only use the VPN service to torrent movies and tv shows.
