Searching for VPN yields many results, but most are SEO-crap with their sponsor company being pushed to the top.

If you were on /r/vpn and /r/privacy years ago, you might remember the “that one privacy guy/site”. The site owner used to do VPN reviews, with commentary on topics as speed, ease of use, support, etc., without resorting to typical buzzwords like “military grade encryption”. There was a table with all of their findings so readers like us could sort or compare between providers by priorities. There also was a similar section for email hosts (without reviews). The site owner, unfortunately, went offline and the site itself was sold to a company as far as I remember, but it was a breath of fresh air of unadulterated web 1.0.

Do any of you know anything similar that is updated/active today? I am comfortable with my current VPN provider, but it’s always nice to be aware of other options.

    I’m just thinking about https://privacyguides.org/ but they don’t really review everything, just tries to give an objective opinion on tools and services that they recommend
