"Private Internet Access has verified in court multiple times that we keep no logs."
If they've gone to court on multiple occasions and proven they keep no logs, that's pretty compelling evidence that they're telling the truth. I guess you could never be 100% sure though.
Was that before or after they got bought out?
Before I'm pretty sure. They used to be common recommendations for this reason.
Torguard has also proven no logs in court, and I believe they also have never been acquired.
Some companies like Mullvad have no way to even keep logs
No way to be 100% sure, but they were raided by police recently and supposedly walked away with nothing. Verge article
SomeOrdinaryGamers had a video on it also.
There are other VPN providers that offer similar stuff to mullvad, I can keep going for days.
TL;DR They do not ask you for any info that would deanonymize you & support FOSS projects
They do not ask for information that would deanonymize you would be a better way of putting that
I just shared a link where they answer those questions in much more detail that I can do via Lemmy commet replies. If you have specific questions please share them, if someone wants to help you out they will reply, otherwise just read the article and try different VPN providers out yoruself.
edit: formatting replies edit2: Because you edited your reply you should NEVER trust any company with your personal information. You should just NOT give it to them, I do not trust Mullvad or any other "privacy" related company to store data that would deanonymize me, you are proving my point that you do not read what I'm typing or the article I've shared.
