I see people say that NordVPN is a bad choice all the time, but I’ve never seen any credible evidence that they’re not trustworthy. Can anyone provide any sources with valid reasons to avoid their service? I only know that they had some servers hacked in 2018, but it seems as though they took that very seriously and upgraded their hardware and encryption accordingly. I’m just trying to decide if I want to start looking at alternatives, but honestly I’m pretty satisfied with my experience so far.
Wasn’t NordVPN that provider that said they were no log and then a hack happened and exposed that they did, in fact, retain logs of user activity? Am I mixing them up with someone else?
According to them it was one specific server somewhere and they no longer use that company. The CEO when it happened still claimed they didn’t have logs according to this https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/after-twitter-allegations-nord-vpn-discloses-breach-1.1334946

Not really an excuse, it’s them not doing due diligence… I’m more surprised that I correctly attributed this remote memory to the correct scummy VPN provider lol
