I've used their VPN service for about a year and have no complaints. Connections are stable and fast. Maybe not quite on the level as PIA…

You mention the data retention scheme as a reason to sign up. But given you're domiciled in Australia, doesn't that mean you are also…

[@BKZ](/comment/4071743/redir): Hey, thanks for the kind words. I sort of agree with you in one sense: I don't think there are really any…
