PIA got purchased by Kape Technologies a couple years ago. With their track record, you can choose to believe the report issued by consultants they paid, or you can just go to companies with better track records, like Mozilla VPN or Mullvad.

Seems like an easy choice to me.

What’s wrong with PIA’s track record?

Kape used to be a malware company or something. Also, a few years ago PIA made a negative statement about Proton but instead it backfired. I can't remember exactly what it was

Ah right. I was totally unaware.
