VPNmentor, a VPN review site, was acquired by Kape "Technologies" for 150M.

PrivateInternetAccess, a major VPN service was acquired by the same company for 95M.

A VPN review site is worth more than most VPN services it promotes due to insane $CPA they pay to these types of sites, that masquerade as "security exports" while in reality ran by marketing people.

Every "favorite" VPN is a property they own, except for the sole NordVPN guy.
