There's way too much hype over VPN Providers, but do not forget, you are routing all your traffic through their servers

As a general advice, if a VPN provider keeps logs of your activity, does not allow you to pay with crypto, and generally spends way too much on youtube ads is probably not an ideal choice.

Do not follow any advice/recommendation blindly, do your own research on which one offers the best service for your own needs.

"Private Internet Access has verified in court multiple times that we keep no logs."

If they've gone to court on multiple occasions and proven they keep no logs, that's pretty compelling evidence that they're telling the truth. I guess you could never be 100% sure though.

Was that before or after they got bought out?

Before I'm pretty sure. They used to be common recommendations for this reason.

Torguard has also proven no logs in court, and I believe they also have never been acquired.
