Recently my VPN provider asked me to upload my scanned ID, showing my picture, full name etc.

They claimed it is for "fraud" prevention, which makes sense from their perspective, but not from mine.

When I'm connected to my VPN I expect some privacy, isn't it (one of the things) a VPN is for?

Besides that, they already have my credit card number, full name and address on their records. Should I dare to misuse their service, my bank would identify me in a second and they could be in my door within minutes.

But they still feel it's Ok to ask their customers for even more data, I didn't like it at all.

What if they're (secretly) recording all websites and data transmitted via their VPN and now they'll be pinning it my ID on their systems. Not that I have anything that secret, but it shouldn't matter, I want to keep my private stuff private.

I have written back to them complaining about this policy, but haven't heard from them yet. I might be better off just leaving them.

So please if you know of VPN providers with more respect for it's customers privacy, please share them here!

Would be great to find one with:

- Fast speeds
- Written promise of not logging customer's traffic
- Private payment methods such as Bitcoin
- Servers in many countries
