Hello, my vpn subscription will soon end so I am looking for reviews about good private VPN. I will probably stick with proton or try airvpn or PIA but I just wanna know if someone tried Geph VPN.

I didn’t find any review on reddit or lemmy. Seems like a chinese VPN but if a VPN works well in China and has good privacy policies it’s probably the winning combo.

    Avoid “Private Internet Access” at all costs. It’s run by Kape Technologies, the company behind multiple VPN providers like ExpressVPN and CyberGhost.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kape_Technologies

    If you read their legal agreements, you’ll notice they are rather questionable.

    Also, don’t use a VPN from a Chinese provider. As far as I’m aware, Chinese companies are heavily regulated and legally required to share data with the Chinese government without a warrant or similar order.

    I suggest taking a look at this chart, which might be helpful: https://vpn.techlore.tech/

    Depends on what you need a VPN for.

    I don’t know them but they seems to be from Estonia marketing themselves for evading censorship. Are you in a country that censor VPN? If not why do you think the tradeoff might be worth? The 2 hops should have an impact on bandwidth and latency and there is probably no port forwarding.

    Using a VPN is just moving your trust from your ISP to the VPN. Why would you trust a VPN you know nothing about giving them access to all your internet traffic?

      No my country is pretty fine with VPN. I just don’t want to die stupid that’s why I ask for any review about this VPN I didn’t heard about before.
