Perhaps this would help and there are of course others who have shared top lists for VPN. Just be aware that not all sights welcome those who use VPN. You should find a VPN provider who makes it easy to temporarily pause or turn off/on VPN at will.

You know you can set up a VPN behind your home firewall, and route all traffic through the VPN?
Annual cost $0.00/year. I prefer that vs paying some scummy "privacy" VPN provider.
I use Nord and yes, it is not perfect as some sites are sensitive to various addresses that come from VPN servers. However, the good news is the speed is decent, and rarely any perceived latency. Nord had an issue back when with an expose server in one of the countries and that since has been correct as well as further security put in place. My reason for going with them at the time was simply financial as they had a great deal going on. I likely would have gone perhaps with Express or similar if not Nord.I just tried NordVPN for about a week. In the end it didn't work for me, mostly because only very particular servers allow me to reach Bank of America and Merrill Lynch. And, unfortunately, the Windows version of the application didn't have an easy way to save favorites so that I might record, within the app, which servers work for me.
The Mac and Windows versions are quite different. They advertise split tunneling, but that's not supported in the Mac version. Other than that I find the Windows version less nice than the Mac version (for some trivial reasons).
In their defense, their support did respond to my Bank of America problem within a couple of hours. They provided me a small list of servers to try to reach that site; they all worked.

I used to be a regular expressvpn subscriber. Now i found an alternative, pandavpn. Worked well on my PC and mobile phones. More importantly, it's much cheaper than expressvpn. |
ProtonVPN doesn't steal data from you.If it's free it's slow or they leach data from you. I like PIA myself. It's fairly cheap. You can peruse the net for sales codes. They'll probably have an Easter sale.
Are you saying PIA does?ProtonVPN doesn't steal data from you.
Not that I've heard of but ProtonVPN has a free plan. PIA does not.Are you saying PIA does?

Hello all,
I’m looking for a VPN to install to my new MBP. I feel like every other YouTube video has an influencer recommend another VPN service and I don’t know which to trust.
Obviously one that is fast and reliable are preferred. Free would be spectacular.
