@ProtonVPN Wanted to thank you for the outstanding service your company offers - I have used vpn service over the years, and seen many. The speed and reliability of your client software surprised me, instantly - it's World Class, and better.
I highly recommend @ProtonVPN for an extremely secure VPN with a great reputation. And you can bundle it with @ProtonMail to make your email private instead of having google or yahoo, etc from scraping your inbox and selling your data
