With such a huge spread of servers, a few hiccups isn’t surprising. Unfortunately, this price is only available if you sign up with NordVPN for 3 years, which might be a bit of a long stretch for some. You might find a cheaper service but not at these levels of performance.
That’s one of the lowest prices I’ve seen a reputable commercial VPN go for and that’s the truth. With well over 5,000 servers deployed, wherever you are, NordVPN has you covered. Instead of just bouncing off one VPN server, NordVPN can route you through two! How’s that for paranoia? For a VPN service, this is an advantage, but personally (and this is just me I mean) I think it’s a bit excessive. Oh, and you can pay anonymously with Cryptocurrency as well.
To my knowledge, PGP is pretty much unbreakable, so that’s an added privacy bonus.
