I’d prefer to get a VPN to avoid the risk of my internet getting shut down, but I’m not aware of what the options for Linux are. I figured this would be a good place to ask.

    The only VPNs which are not owned by marketing companies are Mullvad and Proton. The largest VPNs are owned by Kape Technologies, renamed because their prior company name distributed malware, whose top people are former Israeli military, so I wouldn’t trust them as far as I could throw them. I would never use a free VPN except for Proton, and Proton’s paid VPN has a lot more nodes and features.

      I’m a Proton die hard but I hear their Linux VPN client is lacking. I use all of their products but not on Linux.

    I’ll vouch for airvpn. I’ve been using it for probably six years now with no issues. When using wireguard I can download Linux isos at 500mbps.
