I know there are plenty of software missing from here. This is just a fun infographic I made, no need to take it seriously :)

    VPN services aren’t for security they’re for getting around regional blocks. If you want privacy build your own. But even then youll still be tracked

        vpns are not anonymous just instead of your isp getting your internet traffic the vpn does theres also not a real way to verify what there doing on there servers unless your sitting inside of the datacenter monitoring it vpns where never supposed to be anonymous

        Incorrect. It just means someone has to throw money at proton to get that data instead of throwing at ISPs and marketing nuts. They are subject to the same capitalistic pressures as anyone else.

        I2P needs more torrents and more people.

          Torrenting over VPN service is also dumb. Why bother just get a seedbox that accepts xmr

            Seed boxes are also dumb. You are making a honeypot for yourself that can be monitored by the hosting provider.
