I’ve cancelled my subscription yesterday, conveniently it was about to renew at the end of the week, so I have a few days to migrate from Proton, here’s what I’m thinking of, but I’d love to hear what other people are switching to

What puts me off using iVPN is their jurisdiction. They’re based in Gibraltar which is a British territory and the UK isn’t great for privacy. Maybe they have different privacy laws in Gibraltar?

if you don’t give them any info then their jurisdiction doesn’t really matter. It might mean they’ll get shut down eventually, but it’s easy to move to a different VPN then.

It’s a VPN, they have access to more info than you could ever willingly hand over if they want it.

i was assuming no logs policy being a given; without it, the VPN is worthless no matter how good privacy laws are in their jurisdiction.
