Private internet access.

Their image is weird because they have the less SEO friendly name ever and all their promotion is made with AI nowadays. It wasn't a few years back and they've been around for a while. But they do both per app routing and port forwarding.

Also, encryption, volatile storage, privacy conscious, a good server spread, etc.

PIA is developed and operated by Israeli devs fwiw [0]. They were acquired in 2019 and a lot of people cancelled/moved on then because Kape has a horrible reputation.

I've been using them for almost a decade. They're cheap AF and serviceable.
