So, while we are on the topic of VPNs. Exactly how does one verify if a VPN is good? I mean, tons of people claim NordVPN is good, yet there are review sites that claim it does indeed log its users.

Same with PIA, exactly how would one of you verify whatever a service is good or not? I do have a good one, but it's always good to keep an open mind, and tons of people seem to like PIA.

Check prism-break.org and privacytools.io for VPN recommendations. thatoneprivacysite.net/vpn-comparison-chart/ compares nearly all VPNs using a spreadsheet

PIA is not recommended because it is based in the US; therefore, subject to 5 eyes. But if you're not committing any illegal, you should be fine with it.

for what it is worth nordvpn has hired PricewaterhouseCoopers AG, Zurich, Switzerland to audit them towards the end of last year. results are below

Ive used Nordvpn for about 8 months and during that whole time i haven´t been able to acess the farms using it. If i had to guess i dont think it relates to NZ shooting but to falseflags from some sort of antimalware sites.

As previous ppl have mentioned its cybersec and its toggleable in the settings.

I can’t reach some websites with VPN connected | NordVPN Customer Support

With cybersec on :

"Cybersec main task is to regularly compare webbadresses to blocklists to protect users against phising and other cyberthreats and scams." Seems like KF is on some sort of blocklist?

The site openly had a crypto-miner running to help fund the site but Null removed it. Any other details are beyond my knowledge.

Yeah god fuck I found this out the other day haha. CyberSec wasn't just blocking KF though, it was blocking a couple of other forums as well. I guess forums count as "malware" these days.
 
It may be due to where you guys are trying to connect from. this post was made from Nord VPN to Switzerland, with cyber security on.
 
I have NordVPN running with cybersec and can access (UK server). I have had issues with it and KF in the past though.
