[kwlug-disc] Best vpn

[Chris Irwin]

Also using PIA here, via their openvpn scripts. Integrates nicely with 
the systemd openvpn unit (for a headless machine) and NetworkManager 
(for my laptop if I need it)

I believe they also have wireguard support now as well, though I haven't 
looked into that personally.

There's a white-label VPN provider that recently got "hacked", by which 
their logs (that they "do not" keep) were kept in an unsecured, publicly 
accessible database. They were marketed under a number of different 
brands. You'll probably want to make sure you don't pick one of thsoe, 
at least.
