A video of yours that I just watched that attempts to show the "REALLY fast" torrenting speeds shows ubuntu 18.10 downloading at 11.2 MB/s (so ~90 Mb/s) with 2200 seeds (and 98 connected). Is this what I am supposed to be seeing? Is there another video I should watch? I haven't tested with the same file, but I routinely break 150 Mb/s while torrenting through PIA.
In regards to price, no one in their right mind should pay for a VPN monthly.

Good job neglecting everything else I mentioned. TorGuard is still 30$ a year which is vastly cheaper than PIA which doesnt offer discount codes. And no I'm referencing the current 2019 speeds comparing both reviews.

If you pay bi-yearly, PIA is ~$40. A bit more, but it's still faster and has better apps.

False. $268.65 3 months free3 + $83.87 per two years.
PIA is $84 for two years.

Is there some legitimate reason that you don't understand, and can't communicate, PIA's pricing structure? I'm a customer of theirs, and you seem to have a huge axe to grind.
App - The app's design is fine, a bit old school, but easy to use and updated within the last year. It also has a ton of security features (app + network switch), streaming IP integration, and the list goes on.
Price - It's the same price as PIA now, and with my discount code "tomspark" which isn't unique really, since TG has thousands of 50% off codes floating around, its $5 a month compared to $10 a month with PIA...
Reputation - TG's reputation has been flawless. They don't make any false claims and are honest about their jurisdiction, as well as a no logs policy.This is why so many VPNs try to buy them out (as claimed in the TG lawsuit document)..The fact they are sueing another VPN for blackmailing them is a good thing IMO. They are showing some balls. The fact so many VPNs are trying to DDOS TorGuard as well, shows they are doing something right.
So yes, I am an objective party. I have been reviewing VPNs since 2015, and have re-reviewed more than 20+ VPNs this year alone.
Not to mention TorGuard only has an affiliate commission rate of 30% which makes it lower than most any other VPN in the industry (proving that I am not a sellout like other reviewers).
