how's it going everybody welcome back and if you're looking for some of the best vpns with the
best no lock policies well you'll find that with expressvpn or vpn and surfshark so before we can
if you're interested in any of these vpns you'll find links to special deals and discounts in the
description down below as well as full-on reviews if you'd like to know the ins and outs in terms
of privacy policy speed streaming and torrenting capabilities as well as security and features so
let's get straight into it this will be a short video and i don't want to make it any longer
again if you're looking for details you'll find all that in the
full-on reviews which will go in depth into everything as i said earlier but you know as a
privacy policy a lot of vpns do claim that they have no log like strict no log policies
and when investigated further i've done many reviews on so many vpns
and when just you know a couple of google searches away and you'll find out immediately that they
have some kind of history with logging handing out information to authorities
uh and just other cases where uh they're kind of uh you know busted they're caught red-handed uh
you know logging information or selling information or any of those uh really just uh
things that you don't wanna mess with it's simple is that what you want to do is
when you when you're looking for a vpn you want to make sure they have independent audit reports and
when it comes to these three vpns they all have had independent audit reports uh what an
independent audit report is is when uh a company for example like pricewaterhousecoopers or cure53
they independently and as a third party they examine the no lock policy and they examine the
network of these vpn providers making sure that they're let's say honoring their privacy policies
and if they are they will publish these uh you know whether they are or not they'll publish
these audits they're they're they'll publish the audit reports and uh well then you'll be able to
kind of uh really read these reports and see if they're in good standing or bad standing uh so
with these vpns they have all resulted in very good standing but of course the
degree to which these vpns were audited differ a little bit it differs so the expressvpn which will
be the vpn that had the most amount of audit reports uh or independent audits uh you know
they were examined expressvpn had their their network and privacy policy examined
quite a bit uh they have three audit reports and one of them i believe examined the network itself
and the security uh which all of which resulted in very good standing um and in terms of nord vpn uh
they also had two no two no log policy audit reports which also resulted in good standing
of course both express vpn and or vpn were the the applications themselves were examined whereas in
surf shark's case unfortunately even though their independent audit report resulted in
very good standing and it just had a great conclusion unfortunately it only examined the um
chrome extensions for uh the chrome and firefox firefox extensions for surf shark
unfortunately not the application itself which is a little bit disappointing but uh nonetheless
uh they were all uh they had pretty good uh results really so cure 53 examined the
surf shark and nordvpn uh got examined by pricewaterhousecoopers uh and that'll be
the same with expressvpn so the thing about the no lock policy though um and this is where expressvpn
is uh kind of unique because in 2017 the turkish government seized an expressvpn
uh server so we have a real-life situation here where i'm actually going to just show you guys
the page here we have a real-life situation where uh expressvpn was kind of uh proven to have a true
no logs policy uh as you can see here so according to recent turkish media reports investigators in
turkey alleged that a still unknown individual used expressvpn in an attempt to delete evidence
related to last year's assassination of russian ambassador andrei karlov this individual according
to the reports logged into the gmail and facebook accounts of the assassin off-duty police officer
i'm not going to try to attempt that and deleted conversations that would have been relevant to
the investigation and at the end of the report of course here it says that uh i think where where
is it yeah expressvpn does not has never possessed any customer connection logs that would enable us
to know which customer was using these specific ips cited by the investigators furthermore we
were unable to see which customers access gmail or facebook during the time in question
as we do not keep activity logs we believe that the investigator's seizure and inspection of the
vpn server in question confirmed these points so of course this was a forceful seizure of these
servers and expressvpn pretty much proved that they are uh true they have a true locks policy and
they honor it at all times of course keep in mind that if expressvpn had any kind of information to
uh provide to help the investigators catch a criminal they would have
no matter what vpn are using no matter their privacy policy every vpn provider will cooperate
with authorities when it's a high-profile case or if there's criminal activity so keep that in mind
but in this case they just did not have any logs so this proves their true no logs policy and uh
still here they do um announce that hey while it's unfortunate that security tools like vpns can be
used for illicit purposes they are critical for our safety and the preservation of our right to
privacy online expressvpn is still fundamentally opposed to any efforts to install quote unquote
backdoors or attempts by governments to otherwise undermine such technologies so expressvpn is still
uh committed to their users um uh privacy policy no matter what and uh so yeah that'll
be it again if you guys are interested in uh the details of such uh independent audit reports uh
be sure to check the uh reviews down below i'll give you more more of an in-depth look into
everything not just the privacy policy so that you know exactly where you're getting yourself
into but generally speaking all of these vpns have very solid no log policies and keep in mind
that there's no such thing as a true zero locks policy but there's just a no log policy where
nothing that is logged can be identified or linked or cited to a specific user but there are always
logs um so yeah this is uh so here as you can tell for example expressvpn we'll collect a few
a few types of information some some kind of information to help them with statistics and
such but nothing that is you know identifiable such as ip address browsing history traffic
destination or metadata or dns queries and that's the same with nordvpn and surf shark
uh which is also of course evident in their uh in the conclusions of their no log
policy or independent audit reports actually so yeah thank you guys very much for watching again
