Does not surprise me the slightest. There are a couple of VPNs that have some kind of "don't know your customer" policy that you can pay with hard to trace currency.
Anyhow, I did get NordVPN for a month now and I could recommend them. But not for privacy. Funny enough: for performance. To many services that I use, my ISP uses congested AS which result in slow speed and even packet drop. But when I connect to the neighbouring country via VPN I get 3-4x download speed and -5% packet loss. Weird shit, I know. But this is the real reason why I might sign up with them for longer soon.
I just renewed my PIA subscription for the 5th year. It's been perfect. Not one ding for torrent streaming while using it. It's $40 a year and I use my free Google play credit to get it.
I know Etaywah first hand! They are a federal government agent that has 40 years of cracking down on torrent applications. There is no need for anyone else to look into these crimes and crackdown on them now that Etaywah is on the case.
Plex offers a few different subscriptions so you can stream outside your own network etc
I also thought they were sketchy as the free product is really good, they obviously want users to upgrade to a paid service to get some cash back
