If you’re using a VPN to stay safe, this will anger you.
You were told a VPN would shield you. Protect your data. Keep you anonymous. But what if the tool you downloaded for privacy was literally designed to watch you?
This video uncovers the full story behind the most dangerous VPN ever made—used by Facebook to spy on teenagers—and how today’s most trusted VPNs are following the same exact blueprint.
If you’ve ever felt unsure about who to trust online, this video will give you the receipts, the checklist, and the countermeasures you actually need.
Inside this video, you’ll learn:
• How Facebook turned a “privacy app” into a surveillance weapon
• The Israeli cyber intel unit behind Onavo and why it matters
• What Project Ghostbusters did to break HTTPS encryption
• Why 20+ top VPNs are secretly owned by spyware vendors
• The real story behind ExpressVPN, Kape Technologies, and fake “independent” review sites
• The 7-point checklist every VPN must pass to be trusted
• Better tools to protect yourself: DoH, hardened Firefox, Tor, browser isolation, and more
I have some issues with proton but I feel like the free tier thing doesn’t really apply to them since they provide other services and use it as a loss leader to get people onto their ecosystem. Their business model is fundamentality different from other “free” vpns because their trying to build essentially an alternative to the Google suite
Their absolutely atrocious record with what they claim to be open source apps is a much bigger issue imo
Agree on that it may be an exception for Proton with your reasoning.
I’ve heard this before about Proton’s issues with releasing source code in timely manner or at all but didn’t know much about it so I just looked up more info; it seems at least their VPN client does have all the source code publicly available though (for each OS it’s available on). Whereas they do have holes elsewhere in unprovided code for various Proton service clients.
