I see people say that NordVPN is a bad choice all the time, but I’ve never seen any credible evidence that they’re not trustworthy. Can anyone provide any sources with valid reasons to avoid their service? I only know that they had some servers hacked in 2018, but it seems as though they took that very seriously and upgraded their hardware and encryption accordingly. I’m just trying to decide if I want to start looking at alternatives, but honestly I’m pretty satisfied with my experience so far.
I use it for torrenting and it works great. Wouldn’t send my credit card number through it, but I feel like that would be retarded with any provider…
FYI you’re probably being downvoted because the r word is a slur in modern English.
Also, a VPN is just an extra wrapper around your network traffic.
Your credit cards are no less safe over a VPN, except for the fact the VPN software is installed on your device and could be doing something malicious, but at that point it doesn’t need to be turned on or visibily running to steal your data.
