This kind of powertrip is precisely why i dislike PG discourse.

Think @JG urged you to start a new thread on the marketing stuff. It is a valid concern.

I’ve brought this up before to no avail: Thread on r/privacy on Reddit Critical of Privacy Guides Forum - #45 by ignoramous

@khoa

All of this derails from my #1 recommendation.

You named your recommendation aptly. You’re indeed proposing weaker guarantees which deviate away from what both PG & public VPN providers claim to enforce.

@ignoramous

Without a “killswitch”, I don’t think a VPN can lay any claim to accomplish that (a client-side guarantee is hard to provide without a client-side implementation to match). In fact, 2 of the 4 points PG makes for why one must “almost certainly” use VPNs are not sound, I don’t think: Mention kill switch leaks caused by OS limitations - #4 by ignoramous

And as mentioned above, the discussion to change the criteria to accomodate Proton is happening on this thread (not here): Change Proposal on Privacy Guides Recommended VPN Providers Page - #37 by ignoramous
