Hey Dave, i am glad that you like both of my article. Personally i would not recommend you to use Windscribe since it is located in Canada that is a part of FVEY jurisdiction. It means all the VPN providers who are located in 5 eyes, 9 eyes and 14 eyes jurisdiction are prone to your privacy. This is because they all have to corporate with the mass surveillance of these countries. For best VPN service, i would recommend you to go for NordVPN or Surshark since both providers are located outside the 14 eyes countries and available at cheap prices.
Remember that jurisdiction is one of the important aspect when choosing a best VPN service. For more details regarding why i do not recommend you to use a VPN service that is based in 5 eyes, 9 eyes and 14 countries, you can see my blog regarding it:

Very good and interesting article.
I agree totally that our privacy and online activities are at stake and being scrutinized by less than legitimate sources, hell bent on using that info for absolutely no good purpose…
I can see the argument of protection of one’s country I guess, but absolute power corrupts absolutely, wouldn’t you agree… Fine article and good solid advice that for the most part I have been following for some time now.. I use a vpn constantly…
My first choice is “windscribe”.
Not sure if it’s great but it offers free 10gig of data per month.
Wireguard is waiting in the wings. Along with Proton vpn.
I also liked your article on replacing google apps with alternative ware… Something else on my next to do list…
Thanks… I’ll be watching…
No I’m not the government.. Lol.
