I'm thinking of trying a VPN. Up to now, I've never used a VPN service. I have avast AntiVirus installed on one system and avast offers their VPN service for only $1.99/mo, billed at $23.88/yr, and they offer slightly lower cost for subscribing for 2 or 3 years. And, it covers up to 5 devices (PC, Mac, Adroid, and iOS). So, the cost is low but a review at
https://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2420857,00.asp only gives it a 3-star, or Good, rating. Just wondering whether anyone can comment on their experience with any of the VPN services.
I am under the impression one shortcoming of avast SecureLine VPN is a small number of servers/locations, compared to some of the other VPN services, and that fact could result is slower speeds than services running more servers at more locations.
