I have a PIA account... I didn't hear what happened. What changed?
I read something about they are under new ownership and keeping logs now, despite saying they don’t (they aren’t in a privacy-friendly sort of place). This was like 6mths ago. I can’t find anything about it now, so I’m not entirely sure what’s true, but it’s enough to spook me on it either way.
Additionally, for me at least, the service was being blocked a ton more than used to happen (couldn’t access a lot of the sites I was using it for) and it doesn’t seem the client has been updated in ages.
It’s probably fine, but it’s not worth it for me anymore.
Ah ok. I'll certainly keep my eyes and ears open and bounce too if needed. Thank you!
