Proton VPN
Built around the idea that privacy is a fundamental right, Proton VPN offers a more transparent approach to online security. Founded by scientists who met at CERN, the Swiss-based service is fully open-source and backed by an independently audited no-logs policy, so browsing activity isn't tracked, stored, or sold. Its network spans more than 20,000 high-speed servers across 149 countries, with added protection from Secure Core routing, built-in NetShield ad and malware blocking, and unlimited bandwidth without speed throttling. Part of Proton's broader ecosystem of privacy-first tools, Proton VPN is now offering 75% off its two-year subscription, marking its biggest deal of the year and an opportunity to get comprehensive online protection for less.
