Do you sometime think about the losers paying 10 euros a month on a VPN so I can watch stupid yuotube videos?

    @retoor depends on the threat model. Torrent? By all means, VPN. Chances are, it is a civil law suit that comes after you and it just stops when the IP is in Asia. But honestly, that's the extend of usefulness I can see. Or in Russia where it is legal atm.

    Not talking about side2side VPN or similar. Those are quite valuable.

    @retoor No your provider doesn't have useful logs anymore when using a VPN, but the VPN has.

    And the majority of internet traffic is HTTPS anyways. Except for stuff like domain names which are transmitted in plain text

    The only reason to use it is for tunneling into your own network or bypassing IP/geo-blocking

    Not for privacy/security like all these shills claim

    @retoor That's probably because Tor has been compromised (or at least a good chunk was)

    @devRancid You can now also DNS over HTTPS

    Nord is now 150 a year, all so I can train the captcha robots on what a streetlight is. I dumped it.
