I’m thinking about paying for a VPN, I currently don’t use one.

I’d like to use Mullvad but they don’t seem to have regional prices, while Proton does.

I wonder if Proton is still a reliable option, Proton is 60% cheaper in my country, probably because regional pricing (but I didn’t check if it’s really the case).

If anyone has any other suggestion I’d like to hear it.

    A dumb take is, to pay for something you might get nothing from.

    You just described every form of insurance.

      To you, maybe… I’m sorry to hear that your insurances isn’t working for you.

      What I described might be taken as me describing an insurance, that you totally foil, without knowing it, because you didn’t read the policy, and you don’t know what it covers and doesn’t cover.

        If everyone always got payouts for the insurance they pay into, the industry literally could not exist.

        It’s the entire business model.

          Clueless… If you have insured your house against fire, and your house burns down, you should always get the money you have insured it for. If the shed in your yard is not covered by that insurance, you won’t get any money if it burns down. That’s logic. If you want money for that too, it should be included in the police.

          But I see that you really don’t get the point here, even though you wanted to use “insurance” as the (faulty) example here. Maybe you should stick to the topic.
