NordVPN confirms it was hacked

I am surprised why isn’t anyone suggesting Cloudflare’s Warp VPN? Genuinely curious what is the difference. I guess Clodflare one is only for mobile?

Cloudflare's Warp is not an anonymising VPN as far as I know. It is just a way to speed up Internet speeds, especially in poorly connected areas. They make no effort to hide the origin IP. So it is not in the same class as other VPN providers.

This is interesting to read that Cloudfare is suggested here... shows that the term VPN is still thought of as private. (I know it is Virtual Private Network - but the termination is almost never private).

It's anonymous wrt your ISP. Which is what 95% of the complaints here refer to.

Yes, unfortunately it's currently not possible to use Warp VPN on PC. Otherwise, quite good service.

https://airvpn.org/ is also worth mentioning.
