    This is why you go with vpns that don’t keep traffic records. They’ll certainly respond to subpoenas, but if they don’t keep any information on your activities, the response will not be useful.

      Prove it. There’s gotta be some level of logging to maintain the system and performance. Even small levels of logging can give away information. Unless you can audit their system it’s not worth it imo.

      The biggest nail gets hammered down, and for the past decade or so that’s VPN providers.

        NordVPN is audited to make sure they aren’t storing records, or so they claim. I’m sure other companies do similar things.

        Yes you only need the user ID to be logged, most people are talking but the searchs being logged. I user ID doesnt tell much if someone does audit. Only that you exist on the platform
