Just curious, what VPN provider did you go with? Are you happy with it so far? Any helpful links that compare/review VPN services?

I went with Private Internet Access[0]

I found this comparison matrix[1] which provided me the info I needed to identify a few services to compare. I'm really just looking to keep my ISP from snooping on my traffic, so my criteria are pretty limited and I just wanted something quick. I don't plan to watch Netflix with it for example, which might have pushed me to a service that would allow me to select specific servers for traffic egress.

I have no complaints

I think you forgot to provide your reference for [1].

I also went with Private Internet Access, but I'm not sure what you mean by

>I don't plan to watch Netflix with it for example, which might have pushed me to a service that would allow me to select specific servers for traffic egress.

PIA has servers in many different countries that you could switch to, does that not that fulfill this?

I am very happy with f secure freedome. Good speeds (mostly able to give me at least 30-40 megabit) and reputable company that provides decent support. I have been a customer for a few years.
