Basically 3 good choices
ProtonVPN AirVPN IVPN
Proton has a 50% off student discount bringing the price down to $5 a month for all proton services.
IVPN is probably the best but most expensive.
There’s nothing inherently wrong with windscribe but I don’t trust any company that offers a cheap lifetime plan for something that requires so much upkeep.
@MedicareForSome they don’t offer lifetime plans anymore, but the prices are cheap - perhaps suspiciously so. I think they rely on people paying and not using to subsidize the heavy users (like myself).
