Are there free European VPNs? I haven’t looked into VPNs in ages.

You can buy 100 gb of traffic from a reputable VPN for like $5. Why risk it with looking for a free one?

I’ve noticed a trend that people massively underestimate the costs to become GDPR compliant. Even companies that do “everything right” have spent hundreds or thousands of man hours crossing the t’s and dotting the i’s.

I'm an American but also an EU citizen. Should I take legal action about this?

Note to our followers: If you're concerned about keeping your browsing history private, a VPN you didn't set up yourself is a bad idea. Because it means instead of your ISP being an MITM, the VPN provider is.
