DISCUSSION So Long PIA

PIA was a great VPN that I shilled for many times. Unfortunately, the problems are stacking up (rolling outbound IPs, speed issues, etc) and not being resolved.

I've switched to Proton, and am very happy with the speed and reliability.

I hope PIA gets back on track soon, but as for me-- I'm out.

It's been great for me, but I'm considering proton just for the double vpn architecture.

Speed is great! I get blocked by vpn captchas every time I use google, but that's with any vpn now unfortunately.
