Proton VPN is a privacy-focused virtual private network service offered by Proton. It provides fast, secure connections across servers in more than 140 countries, with free and premium Plus plan options. The service operates on a no-logs, no-ads policy, is open-source and independently audited, and supports streaming, device compatibility across desktop, mobile, smart TV, and browser platforms. It also includes tools such as a public IP scanner and censorship simulator.
Algo is a self-hosted personal VPN server introduced by Trail of Bits in December 2016. It automatically deploys an on-demand VPN service in the cloud that is not shared with other users, relies on only modern protocols and ciphers, and includes minimal software. The project is described as free.
RiseupVPN is a personal VPN client offered by Riseup for censorship circumvention, location anonymization and traffic encryption. It routes internet traffic through an encrypted connection to riseup.net and, unlike most VPN providers, does not log IP addresses. The client requires no configuration or account registration and is available for GNU/Linux, macOS, Windows and Android. The service is funded entirely through donations.
Firefox VPN helps find, check, or use proxy services for alternate web access and privacy testing.
AirVPN helps find, check, or use proxy services for alternate web access and privacy testing.
This IVPN blog post announces the decision to gradually phase out the port forwarding feature from the IVPN Pro plan. It states that port forwarding is not offered for new customers as part of the Pro plan, and that all reserved ports would be disabled and the feature removed on 30 September 2023. The change does not affect IVPN Standard accounts.
RethinkDNS is a private DNS resolver with custom rules, blocklists and analytics, and RethinkDNS + Firewall is a companion Android app. Features include an Android firewall that blocks apps from connecting to the Internet, DNS-layer content blocking of ads and trackers, and anti-censorship through encrypted DNS requests. It is free and open source.
