minus-squaredev_null@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·3 months agoI need a VPN to get around geoblocks and to torrent without my ISP sending me letters. NordVPN always worked perfectly fine for me. I don’t see the problem? Not saying other ones aren’t better, but it seems perfectly adequate. Looks like the concerns are about who owns it? But how does that make it a worse solution for my torrent box?
