My subrsiption with surfshark is ending soon and I was wondering if there was something better around the same price. There are a lot of ads about many VPNs but a lot of them don’t look so “safe and private” as they want you to think so it’s hard to really figure it out. I don’t want to spend too much since I don’t use them very often but I kinda like the “change catalog of netflix” thing and to be safe while doing some “”“”“”“shady”“”“”" stuff
MullvadVPN is great. It’s a no-bullshit VPN.
I believe it does have an issue surrounding their disabling port forwarding, which becomes problematic if you try to torrent, or so I understood.
They are A+ on privacy and transparency, that being said.
They have recently removed support for port forwarding. That won’t stop a user being able to torrent but it will stop seeding and will affect discoverability and speed somewhat.
Has no negative impact on their privacy features
Another vote for Mullvad. You can pay by cash, vouchers (in some countries) or Monero for total privacy.
