ProtonVPN is no log and so is Mullvad I think. Basically it's mostly reputation, some also pay for outside audits of their systems so they can more effectively boast.
No log vpns probably do cooperate with authorities, but the fact that they are no log means they don't provide anything. They get a warrant for logs and identification, they comply and send a letter "we have no logs, or way to trace the identity of a user".
And character is like a tree and reputation is a shadow of it, and it takes a hell of a lot less to bring it down than to grow it up.

Whats more is that, anyone who creates a server can scrape all the data on fediverse. It's every AI company's wet dream.
And any comment you delete will still be visible to server admin.
Lemmy currently does have these privacy issues
OMG! They will know all of Hue Manne's secrets!!!

Free trial with limitations is a classic method that has worked well
I’m saying it’s literally a free VPN. But they’re q company. If they’re offering you free shit, you’re the product.

Proton isn't.
Didn’t even know they offered a free vpn. I thought it was only on paid plans. Shrugs, I already use mullvad

Unless you sign up for a VPS free trial yourself and set it up. I have two Oracle always free instances running right now
Ya if you are hosting it yourself then pretty different. I use them for a basic Nextcloud server myself. Their ARM servers are dirt cheap even when you have to go above their free generous cores and ram.

is ProtonVPN a scam then? no.
Most are, but not necessarily
Honestly I thought their vpn was only on paid plans. Kinda impressed they offer it free. I assume it’s a way to get people into the ecosystem and also use their email and etc

The dingy color scheme gives it away immediately. AI thinks comics should look dingy. Are all LLMs trained on comics printed on old newspaper or something?
It's similar to something we'd do on purpose in the mid 2010's, deep frying, when people made satirical MLG compilations they would throw memes in as many filters as possible, making a piss yellow slowly cover the meme the more filters you used.

Most people turn to a VPN for one reason: privacy. And with its verified badge, featured placement, and 100k+ installs, FreeVPN.One looked like a safe choice. But once it’s in your browser, it’s not working to keep you safe, it’s continuously watching you.
There's no such thing as free vpn. Any idiot who falls for this quite frankly deserves it.

You can't trust extensions these days. Granted if you are using a "free" vpn, you are the product.

Curious, what country doesn't get twitch ads?
Well that is actually quite dynamic as sometimes advertisers suddenly choose to place an ad in somen fringe country like czech rep. or Georgia. Mostly those small eastern EU countries are not attractive enough for advertisers.
For some reason I also never get ads with Luxembourg IP, even though they are one of the richest countries in the world. Probably too small of a traget audience.
