Security
NordVPN
Again I ran the Advanced --> Diagnostic Tool --> Network Flush and restarted PC, did not work. Ran Advanced --> Diagnostic Tool --> Reset App and Network Flush both and restart Pc, did not work. Disabled Kaspersky Antivirus and tried Nord VPN on and quick connect or P2P, still did not work.
Private Internet Access
I am using the local pia vpn server, not one in another country. Yet netflix restricts my access since it detects my IP as a VPN one (PIA). Yeah, it's Netflix fault that this is happening, but IT IS PIA's FAULT THAT WE ARE LIED TO ABOUT IT.

Private Internet Access
I guess just look at private internet access and CyberGhost, they are owned by kape but they still provide the same privacy and they are still the same nothing is different, kape is worrying but it shouldn’t change anything, ExpressVPN would’ve thought twice if they knew that kape would change the vpn, they are still the same company with the same security
Privacy
NordVPN
NordVPN is rubbish for torrenting (no port forwarding, uploads throttled, IPs banned on some trackers) and even worse for privacy. (Tesonet, got hacked, riddled with trackers on their website and on their apps).
Private Internet Access
I paid a whole year of PIA and got hacked to shit to where they had a backdoor in my VPN itself. Not sure how it works but then I just switched for privacy.
Speed
NordVPN
They're all solid options. I went with NordVPN because of speed, and [I love their UX](https://1vpn.io/review/nord-vpn/r).
Private Internet Access
Only PIA seems to be faster in my limited exp with VPNs. I think it is Mullvad which is highly recommended on privacy forums but not sure personally. Until proton I always was talked Private Internet Access was top tier. It also seemed to work with Netflix and such yet no other VPN will
