      ISPs selling of browsing data not law yet; call your reps in the house if you care about privacy of your browsing.https://twitter.com/internetrebecca/status/845017148175142916 …

      Indeed; I am hoping someone (@consumerreports ?) will actually do a list of more trustworthy VPNs. Many are scams.https://twitter.com/marypcbuk/status/844972738511093760 …

      a VPN you trust more than your ISP; is that a tricky calculation?

      So, the law passed. For VPNs recs: the three I heard most about were: @getcloak @theTunnelBear (PAID) and @FreedomeVPN. Don't use free ones.

      Unfortunately, none of them are audited. Many VPNs are scams—a huge privacy risk. Making recs based on best available but incomplete info.

      To recap: Don't use free VPNs. Don't ask Google—some top results are scams. Their business model is to scam you or obliterate your privacy.
