(Purposeful mispelling of the name 
Hi. So I’ve been asked by the mother of a friend, here in the USA (Pacific NorthWest, whether “VirtualShie1d” VPN is “good” at $99 for a 3 year contract. Trustworthiness is the key here, and ease of use. She is wise enough to appreciate greater privacy… her most sensitive data will just be run of the mill email and Web surfing… with a sprinkling of some enthusiasm for conspiracy theories.
She uses an Android phone (which I tweaked to help her have SOME more privacy than the default). She is not tech literate… at all. I wouldn’t give her Lineage OS etc.
(Am not asking that anyone do research for me… but if someone knows that the specific service is a bunch of turkeys, that would be good to know).
That the VPN calls themselves the easiest and fastest VPN is, I assume, nonsense. Am just looking to help her gain at least the illusion of more privacy… from at least some entities… while helping her to not get in bed with a turd of a company.
But hey, if a good enuff VPN can really cost $3 a month, I may be interested for myself too.
Please feel free to DM me if you don’t want to state preferences publicly etc.
Any advice or feedback on which VPN service would be a good fit would be appreciated… no need for a Cadillac, but don’t want a Pinto either.
Thanks… Y’all are the best.
