Comparison of VPN Security
-
According to this article, some vpn services has been compromised and accused in customers’ data exchange with the government. Is it possible to provide the list of these vpn providers? It will be really useful to know them and subscribe for another vpn if it’s necessary. Nevertheless, all providers assure that they do not keep log and do not provide any info to a third party of course (eg. https://myipservices.com/blog/what-you-need-know-when-choosing-vpn-platform). So, how to choose a truly anonymous service and not be tricked?

Large, well known VPN providers is generally key. That's true for many security concerns. And, of course, running your own is a major thing to do.

We recently had to set up an L2TP tunnel for our apple devices, since the last iOS 10 update took PPTP out of the picture. It was a huge PITA too, because I didn't figure out for a while that the secondary tunnel wouldn't let me reuse existing user accounts in our Watchguard.... that was some fun trial and error. And the WG how-tos never specified anything about needing different user accounts. It sucks to do all the steps right and then get login errors... makes ya feel like an amateur.
