How to Critically Choose a VPN (Talk and Q&A)

In a market so saturated with VPNs it is a challenge not only to determine if you need a VPN or not, but also to navigate the network of VPN review sites and claims as you try to find a trustworthy VPN.

What are the key things you should look for when determining if a VPN is trustworthy? How can you determine if a VPN recommendation site is legitimate? What red flags signal that you should steer clear of a VPN provider?

In this session, you will learn how to recognize signals of trustworthiness in VPN providers and more effectively analyze VPN providers and VPN review sites in your search for a VPN service that respects your safety and security as a user.

Note: This session is not geared toward high-risk users or those for whom anonymity and/or circumventing severe censorship is a necessity.
