They gave up their users years ago, and this was widely publicized. I'll believe that when HideMyAss goes out of business. But a provider would lose business if they did that! The $10/month that you're paying for your VPN service doesn't even pay for the lawyer's coffee, so expect them to hand you over. In short: the only safe assumption is that every VPN provider logs.Īnd remember that it is in a VPN provider's best interest to log their users - it lets them deflect blame to the customer, if they ever were to get into legal trouble. There is no way for you to verify that, and of course this is what a malicious VPN provider would claim as well. The VPN provider can see all your traffic, and do with it what they want - including logging. There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.īecause a VPN in this sense is just a glorified proxy.A Turkish translation can be found here, contributed by agyild.A Russian translation of this article can be found here, contributed by Timur Demin.It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.
Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.
