Proton VPN
Not replaceableeditor verdict · 0 votes
Swiss VPN service with open-source, audited apps, more than 2,000 servers in more than 140 countries; free plan limited to one device.
A personal VPN is easy to set up: WireGuard on a VPS protects you on public Wi-Fi. But a service like Proton VPN sells something else: thousands of servers in dozens of countries, a no-logs policy audited by third parties and the ability to choose the exit. A VPN on your own server does not make you anonymous: your provider sees everything that goes through it.
What you lose
- Servers in more than 140 countries
