Yes, Google’s VPN is intriguing, but I don’t want to give them any more personal information. For work-related purposes, I’ve been using Namecheap fast vpn, and to be honest, it’s been inconsistent. In comparison to larger brands, the server selection seems constrained, but the price is fair and setup was fairly simple. During video calls, there were also a few annoying speed drops. It satisfies basic privacy requirements, but it’s not particularly noteworthy.
This is exactly why I’m skeptical of “lifetime” deals - they rarely last. I’ve been using vpn unlimited devices on multiple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac) with their unlimited device support, and honestly it’s been mostly positive. Setup across devices was straightforward, speeds are decent for streaming, and the multi-device feature actually works well for my family. Had occasional connection hiccups and support took a day to respond once, but overall it’s reliable and good value. Much better than risking a “lifetime” subscription getting canceled.
