If you're looking for a privacy-focused VPN, Proton VPN is a good choice. This Swiss-based VPN is owned, surprisingly enough, by cybersecurity company Proton, which you most likely know it as the developer of the end-to-end encrypted email service Proton Mail. Thankfully, this focus on privacy has definitely carried over to its VPN offering, putting up there with some of the best VPN services around.
First off, Proton owns and operates all the servers in its (recently upgraded) server network. This means the 20,000+ servers in 145 countries are not touched by anyone but the company itself, eradicating the third-party risk that other VPNs may expose themselves to by having outsiders operate their servers.
