I'm leaning towards NordVPN, although an individual I know uses Surfshark. Did not see any other Surfshark subscription deals. While NordVPN is $4.69 a month (middle "tier plan), it has 3 free months, versus only 2 for Surfshark. ![]() On the surface, Surfshark looks to be the cheapest with an attractive rate of $2.05 a month is for 24 months, then the rate increases to $5 a month. (One consideration: NordVPN actually "purchased" Surfshark, although they are still acting independently). As of now (still good holiday deals around), here is the current pricing: But I am torn between NordVPN and Surfshark. I am FINALLY going to get off my b**t and get a VPN. The entire point of VPN is protection and anonymity. If it becomes widespread that some places won't work when connecting via NordVPN, or perhaps any VPN, it will be a big problem. It isn't a big problem for me, although it is inconvenient to have to pause my VPN. This is a problem that Nord folks cannot seem to solve.

I didn't run Speedtest, but my experience was not noticeably different from not being on VPN. ![]() On some recent travel to New Zealand and briefly in Australia, it worked fine using servers there. I don't stream movies, and an not a gamer. I have used it extensively in the USA, and occasionally, just to try it, I will use servers in other countries. With NordVPN I get around 350/225 for down/up. I have gigabit fiber home internet, and typically, without using NordVPN, get in about 500Mbps downstream and 400Mbps upstream. If I run SpeedTest there is somewhat of a degradation compared to unprotected, but that is expected. I use it on my Mac mini, iPhone, and iPad. I have used NordVPN for a 2-3 years now, maybe more.
