IVPN are studs of the industry, no doubt. Very serious folk working hard on sticking to their privacy principles - rare today for sure!

That's a big reason why I went with them. I did a ton of research to see where I felt most comfortable but ultimately went with IVPN because of how transparent they seemed about who they were and what they could/couldn't do. Mullvad was my second choice but at 3 years at a time IVPN was more cost effective. I usually connect via the NY, NJ, and IL gateways and get good speeds. I've got a 500/500 line and pretty consistently get in the 400's each way.

That’s good to hear as a mullvad user. They’re amazing, but often the only player recommended in the space.

Mullvad are absolutely the GOAT for most people so that's fair.

If you need port forwarding or other fringe uses then not so much but you can't go wrong with how well they stick by their guns and by who they choose to associate with.

The top right feature the last remaining indies who for better or worse are the last remaining folks holding onto any kind of standards. Corporate VPNs use tons of marketing tracking, affiliate marketing, and skewer the discussion to suit their profits over all else.

Kape for example have been on a buying spree over the past few years so now all those VPNs tout whatever line is set from above.
