No. None of those. NEVER get a VPN that operates out of (incorporated from) a country in the 14eyes surveillance alliance, or any member of the (((EU))).

Switzerland isn't in the EU so it should be safe. I still have doubts and stick to the likes of which are housed from Panama or something.

I don't see Switzerland in that list?

My mistake. I though they were part of the (((EU))).

That's the main reason I chose Nord VPN (Panama). A lot of people have talked shit about it but I haven't exactly looked at any of the evidence against.

I mostly browse clearnet anyway. My VPN use boils down to discreet piracy or when combined with temp email services and pgp for very sensitive talk.
