Three cheers for ProtonVPN! Make Amazon walk the plank!

As someone who hasn’t sailed the 7 seas since PB and BitTorrent days. Is there a good guide on how to best utilize this now a days?

I literally pay for every single streaming service + YouTube tv and it’s ridiculous. Time to cut the cables again.

Someone else who uses ProtonVPN! Don’t see too many users out in the wild. I love it!

ProtonVPN was killswitching on me 3x a day and NordVPN are criminals (read their ToS it's 2 pages of fuck you we took your money) after you discover they built in a leak feature. PIA is capped at 10mbps. Is there any other decent option out there?
