i signed up for PIA using paypal (i thought i was just setting up my payment source, but they fully created an account) and they sent me an username + password in plain text via email.

i cannot trust a company that does that.

On the one hand, not great. On the other, what can someone do with access to your PIA account? I don't think that gives them any ability to snoop on your traffic, and there's no user data in the account for them to steal.

They could mooch off your access within the 5 device limit, or sign in online and pay your bill?

Mullvad is better
