  • A friend and former colleague in the IT industry recommended them to me so I gave some extra weight to his opinion. Then he lost like ten grand USD in Bitcoin because he left a (default) port forwarded to a VNC server in his house, open to the public and only protected by a known compromised password… and after that I stopped listening to anything he had to say about security.


  • I agree. PIA is the only one I actually paid for and the one I’ve used the least. They’re only still on the list because I bought a 5 year block of time over 4 years ago when they had some big black Friday deal, so their app will soon be uninstalled. The rest are free or trials that I’ve been evaluating for performance. Thanks for the article, though.






  • I agree with almost everything you said except the first sentence. I think the idea of religion should be insulted, not the people themselves. I see the vast majority of religious people as victims of a global cult. Most of them are not bombing abortion clinics, and those who do belong in prison along with anyone who bombs a church, though maybe not in the same cell. Attacking the institutions seems like the high road to me rather than the individuals.
