I like Techlore (https://www.techlore.tech if you don’t know) and I usually regard them as one of the most impartial and most trustworthy Youtubers out there. But for the past few months, I couldn’t help noticing their somewhat heavy bias towards some of their video sponsors. Still, everybody has to eat right?

This time though, it looks like Synology flew them over to Taiwan, and if you watch their video at the event, it’s wall-to-wall Synology shilling. I’m really disappointed.

    privacytools.io doesn’t even list NordVPN as an ad anymore…

    Is there another trustworthy site which compares different platforms?

      There is, it’s the exact one that user and the delusional founder of Privacy Tools have a hate boner for. Privacy Guides is non-profit with no ads or affiliate links.

      Instead of searching for a “trustworthy” source… whatever that means… Learn about which criteria you should look for when choosing a VPN… learn who are the creators of such service and their experiences…

      And then you won’t need to trust, you’ll be able to evaluate
