  • I started using ivpn almost 8 years ago, and I believe the default setting back then was to not use accounts with usernames.

    Some of the key reasons I chose it at the time were port forwarding (this service was later discontinued), its open-source F-Droid application, the ability to configure the WireGuard connection on my Linux machine without the application (I never tried it), its commitment to user anonymity (zero logs, payment methods, etc.), external audits, and the fact that it wasn’t based in an EU member state (ivpn is a Gibraltar-based company).

    The last reason is that I live in the EU, which shouldn’t be a problem for those who don’t.

    Since then, I haven’t bothered to check how the VPN industry has evolved. Thanks for the thorough answer.
