I get the sentiment and I feel the same. But let’s not pretend that ads won’t work on us. For example what’s the first VPN provider that comes to your mind? Even bad press is good press in a way
The first VPN provider that comes to mind (for an average Joe) is probably the one you should avoid though lol. Advertising works on many people, but the thought process that the more ads you see from a single company, the worse their products are holds true for many situations.
Best example is that shitty earbuds company that I’m sure you all remember seeing ads for in the past, still see them occasionally but not as much. Completely unrelated but I like cryptostorm for vpn provider, they are very against kyc and you can get access to their servers without a single piece of identifying information.
NORD VPN!!! But if I’m looking for a product or service I usually do a quick search and find the best solution that fits my needs and in the case of a VPN is reasonably secure from state sponsored surveillance.
Which is why after millions spent on advertising by Nord VPN I picked Proton.

Great company, but no peer-to-peer, right? Automatic disqualification, imo for a general use vpn
