VPN

[The Blackangel]

I’m looking for a new VPN. I had Nord for a couple years, but got rid of it because I was not impressed by any means. So I’m hoping someone here can recommend a good one. I hear a lot of channels on YouTube being sponsored by Express VPN. I don’t know anything about them, or any other VPN if I’m being honest. So I’m in the market for a new one.

There's a few good VPNs on the market such as:
 

1. Surfshark
2. Expressvpn
3. Windscribe

The most privacy focused one's that don't log user activity and are also pretty good are:

1. Mullvad VPN
2. IVPN

ExpressVPN is meant to be one of the best. When your year is up, they'll ask you why you want to cancel it. So be ready to provide a reason. 

I use a free one on my phone, and they are not ideal for downloading large files. Although I think the real problem is my flat. I have noticed a big improvement since I put an unlimited data based SIM in my 4G router. Whereas if I had it in my main phone, the strength of the signal was very weak when I ran a speed test. 

A trick I used to do that kind of worked well enough, was to have one phone at the window with my SIM inside, in my sitting room, turn on the hotspot, and route my connection to other devices, like a second phone or a games console. I found I could achieve over 5 Mbps. It therefore gave me a better result.

But please don't buy budget price Android phones. They are usually slow and fiddly.

I don't use android anyway. The only phones I use are iPhone's. I've owned a few android phones, and every one of them was a worthless piece of shit.
