VPN Recommendations for pfSense?
-
IPVanish is best for USA in 2015 I hope it will support pfsense as well.. IPVanish offer good speed and don't keep logs. have US and other countries servers with great protocols.
-
No logging, specific country, speed, unlimited bandwidth… there are many angles to choose from. The least expensive one I found is from vpn.sh - 2 GBP per month. Good for light use. In fact I got an offer 2 GBP per year recurring plan. Now second year.

Seriously, if you are worried about logs, don't go with any commercial VPN provider. Rent your own VPS for $10-20/month and run your own VPN on it, as well as lots of other cool stuff. All these VPN providers taht say they don't log… how do you know, and why would you take them at their word? Run your own box and be done with the uncertainty.

I have been using VPN and tried several VPN services. I am currently using IPVanish, it is one of the leading VPN service now and it is might be the best choice for pfSense. It has servers in almost 60 counties and a perfect choice for gamers, security experts and streaming lovers due to its fast service and amazing features.

Hi as relevant as your question is I'm still wondering why you would need a VPN for pfSense because it is a Firewall technology that is doing half the job the VPN would do. If you do need one anyway that is based outside USA and takes no logs, I have been reviewing them for a long time now so here are the best ones I can suggest:
1. PureVPN - based in Hong Kong
2. Boleh VPN - based in Iran
3. Ivacy VPN - based in Hong Kong -
Since my last post, I spun up an OpenVPN instance on my VPS. Works like a charm, and no logs.
-
But it's still your server, so you are responsible for it.. Or am I wrong?
-
Of course I'm responsible for it. However, I run a Tor Exit node on that VPS as well, so I have some plausible deniability. At the end of the day, if I feel like stealing a movie I really don't give two shits about the MPAA. What are they going to do, nibble my bum?

ProXPN claims to keep no logs and I think you can pay in bitcoin.

Most VPS will come with a fixed ip, so it doesnt really matter too much what solution is used, beit VPS, Tor or a free Proxy service of sorts, logging will always take place at one or more points along the route.
This kind of explains the situation https://blog.torproject.org/blog/plaintext-over-tor-still-plaintext and when you consider things like Web browsers report back to Google, and all activity if running windows is reported back to MS, theres few ways to surf anonymously.
The problem with Tor, is that it doesnt add a variable delay to the traffic it routes, which is also a flaw with some Bitcoin tumblers incidentally, as you dont need to see whats encrypted as long as you can trace the encrypted data as it passes along nodes, until it reaches its destination. Even though traffic is encrypted, its possible to work out when data is encrypted and when its just an empty tube shielded by encryption, they have different patterns.
Even if using a VPS or Tor Exit nodes that exist in a hostile territory, its still possible to work out and spot identifying patterns which can be used to aggregate various online sessions together which will over time usually make it possible to identify who someone is, as we all leak data, even simple things like the time of posting can link someone to a timezone. Thats sums up some of the work of the NSA & other spooks.

no logs…..US servers
I've tried Mullvad, NordVPN and Anonine. Mullvad should be fine because they don't want name, email. Nord sucks because I got disconnected every now and then. Moreover, they renew your account automatically. With Anonine my connection goes down virtually every hour! And they won't do a refund! This is almost theft. Don't ever subscribe to Nord or Anonine. Lokun looks promising since they are based in Iceland and they don't do advertising. But quite expensive. I use Ipvanish, I did some research a few month ago before all this nonsense for ways to get out of my corporate network, they seemed to come back the best for anonymity.

Nothing is perfect but you want to make it as hard as possible for them. No free lunch for snoops.

Definitely plenty VPN providers around nowadays that are based outside of US jurisdiction and law.
Very relevant to this entire topic thread: I just wrote up this 10,000+ word "ultimate guide to privacy" – http://fried.com/privacy , and would really like feedback on it. I want it to be as useful and all-encompassing at is can be, so any feedback or suggested additions are hugely appreciated guys.

AirVPN

I like Cyberghost

I've said it here before, but I like running my own VPS so that I can implement OpenVPN on it and then I am SURE that no logs are being stored. You can rent some VPSes for like $5/month. A few of those around the world and you have your own VPN network chain with multiple PoPs.
As for that VPN Privacy survey dealie, I don't really trust the entity to accurately report on itself. "Do you keep logs?" "NO WAY MAN!!!" Except that they do, and you can't prove it, and there is no penalty for them lying to you. That is why I refuse to rely on a 3rd-party service for privacy. Granted I don't really care too much about logging. I'm not hacking the Pentagon, and the RIAA/MPAA can kiss my shiny metal ass since I'm not in the US.

My vote goes to Private Internet Access - their "no logs" was tested with a court order (look on torrentfreak.com you should be able to find the article.) Service is reliable based on my experience and can't beat the price.
Renting your own box is a pretty bad idea since anything in or out of it will be traced back to you very easily.
If you need more security then you should likely nest VPNs.
