Wasted $200 on a shady VPN service that logged everything

I signed up for a VPN last year after seeing an ad promising total privacy. Paid for two years upfront. Then I found a forum post showing they kept connection logs and sold data to advertisers. When I tried to cancel, they made me jump through hoops and refused a refund. Has anyone else fallen for one of these and found a reliable alternative?

Did you check if they were based in a country with mandatory data retention laws?

Honestly, didn't you used to think that was overblown until you looked into it?

Wait, data retention laws actually force them to keep that?
