So, my partner finally decided to get with on the trolley and start getting shit for free

Problem is, I’ve been out of the sailing game for a while, so I don’t know what’s good anymore and I figure y’all probably know what’s gonna work best for us anyway

I’m sort of tech savvy, but anything on the less finicky side would probably be best

Thanks in advance, -Love, Flakes

    Don’t use the free ones, you’re looking at downloading malware at worst or just ineffective at best.

    I use Mullvad, privacy focused which is cool. No emails, no nothing. Your account is a string of like 24 digits and you add time on their website. They even do envelopes of cash and crypto or bank transfers if you’re into that. 5 euro/month.

        Mullvad’s willingness (and encouragement) to not even have a credit card payment on file earns them a lot of trust from me.

        It means that, unlike basically every other VPN out there, they’re willing to have literally 0 information about you, and even being surveilled from the VPN server itself wouldn’t be enough to determine your identity.
