To be frank with you, I hate this marketing strategy of VPN providers, there is more than 50% sale all the time, what's the point of that? Just set original prices and stop bullshit marketing and promotions.

yeah, and add to that the bullshit list of claims they make, stuff like "our VPN will protect you from getting hacked" and "complete anonymity online" while most people turn on thier VPN and log in to their gmail.
but my favorite is the "military grade encryption", like dude, 99% of internet traffic is literally encrypted using the same military grade encryption which is just AES-256.

In my country, we have a saying that translates to "everyone is expected to know the law", but you'd have to be a lawyer to have the time to read all of them. And study them to remember them, and keep up with continuous changes and new laws. And even so, lawyers specialize in only parts of all laws. So you can't expect anyone including police to understand all details of every law.

i think every country has a similar saying, in my country, the saying translates to "the law does not protect the ignorant".

ProtonVPN is playing games with me. It offered me 55% discount on 2 years plan, then I revisited the pricing URL and it offered 70% discount. Finally, US$71.76 for 2 years, sounds good. I updated the title and the prices. Some VPNs became cheap and some became expensive.

Then ignore those companies that lure in new customers with discounts. Mullvad doesn't do it, vote with your wallet.

mullvad is so underrated tbh, and they are pretty much unknown in the VPN market outside the privacy space, but that's expected. after all, they don't do paid reviews or run an affiliate program like every other VPNs. actually, i don't think i have seen a single mullvad ad before.
