Thanks for all of this, I've been reading into these options since you left your comment. You trust them then? No logging, secure? Good endpoints?
You're welcome. Trust? Well, trust is hard to come by these days on the net :) Airvpn is italy-based, so if privacy is important, take them. They're here for a long time now, never heard complaints and founded by hackers/pirates. Also we (EU) have strict privacy-regulations. SolidVPN is based in the USA, so...I'd never use those for sensitive stuff. No matter what they promise. They're forced to do so.
There are also Mullvad, Proton, Surfshark, etc.
If you're REALLY serious about your safety and privacy is paramount: take one outside the 5/9/14 Eyes alliances, like CyberGhost (Romania). Generally Romania rocks in those regards. High speed, cheap prices, and most importantly: PRIVACY. Also you could torrent there, in case that's of any interest and not allowed where you live (like here in germany).
Hope you manage to avoid your stupid OSA. It's never really about "Safety".
