So, the law passed. For VPNs recs: the three I heard most about were:
@getcloak@theTunnelBear (PAID) and@FreedomeVPN. Don't use free ones.13 replies 132 retweets 193 likes -

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.
