TL DR- I am on my third VPN being with Proton and I am happy with everything so far. Proton VPN allows free users to enjoy and protect their privacy on the internet without compromising safety and security. I have had no problems yet, the ability to choose your server has mitigated any issues with per server slowdown/latency, and I can use both TORbrowser and torrents with little to no issue while connected. So I used it only when I absolutely needed it and didn't renew by subscription.Īnd finally I am here. I started getting MAYBE 25% of my full speed. They only have one auto-selected hub per country so I had no choice on which server I used.

Everything was great until they changed something in their infrastructure and my speeds just bottomed out. I then went to Tunnelbear as they were a company that is audited by an outside security firm once a year. Proton VPNs initial results were a little below average, with our closest Amsterdam servers managing only 130Mbps. These protocols are considered to be the most secure VPN protocols available on the market.

I started with NordVPN, but then when the data breach happened that exposed a lot of peoples info, mine included, I demanded a refund for my remaining 6 months and left. ProtonVPN uses OpenVPN, IKEv2, and WireGuard protocols for its apps. Haven't had any issues I've had to reach out to customer service for so I can't speak towards that. Price is about the same as I have paid for my past two VPN services. Since this is my third (and hopefully last VPN) I'll weigh in as well.
