Well, one needs to make the leap of faith somewhere.

Though if someone was faking their logs, I'm pretty sure it's possibly to see that there's something fishy going on.

At the end of the day, only you can make the judgement of what constitutes secure enough relating to your own infosec.

Agree completely. I'm choosing to not make my leap of faith trusting a scammy VPN provider after they publish plain text files that claim they're really good people at heart.

Maybe I'll make my leap of faith trusting someone with a little more at stake, and a reputation for being trustworthy.

Which VPN provider in your opinion would you consider "trustworthy"???

My understanding PIA was a great option until the most recent buyout... now I don't know who to throw my $$$ at... just asking

Right now I use Mullvad, because they give off trustworthy vibes and let me use the default wireguard apps instead of custom apps that could give them more access to my computer. They generally appear the least sketchy, but I don't have the knowledge to recommend them per se.
