I understand you don't mean this in bad faith and are just trying to protect the internet from slop.

I just want to say that there is a human behind all of these articles. My intent is not to "spam," but to share what I think are the best practices for better privacy and security. I hope I am helping some people, at least.

Please don't use HN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff part of the time, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity.[1]

The article stank of slop from the first paragraph. You are not distributing high-quality information here.
No, come on. Have you really tested all VPNs in 2026 and picked the best one? You're posting 100% AI-slop articles and the internet is already overflowing with this content.
It's obvious from most of those comparison type articles on the Internet that the author never actually used the product, and just threw something together based on other articles and sales copy. I don't know where you can find real life comparisons based on testing any more.
