Okay, let's hear it over this very long introduction
and get on with our top five VPNs for 2020.
Number five, Private Internet Access,
PIA is one of the most popular VPN providers
on the market today.
Their features include military-grade encryption,
Netflix unblocking, a free SOCKs5 proxy, port forwarding
which makes it great for torrents and more.
Also you don't have to worry about your privacy
with PIA because of their no logs policy
has stood up in real life situations a number of times.
Now that's a big plus, PIA also allows
up to 10 simultaneous connections per account.
And in terms of pricing, they offer one of the cheapest
services on the market especially if you subscribe
for their one year plan and another great thing to notice
that they offer anonymous payment options.
The only downside that we see with PIA
is that the company owning this VPN provider is based
in the U S also they don't work so great in China.
Number four, PrivateVPN,
which has over a hundred servers across the world.
PrivateVPN is a small VPN compared
to the others included on this list.
But this small player has got some big guns under its belt.
So in terms of features,
PrivateVPN has strong security credentials,
allows torrenting and will bypass Netflix restrictions.
It also offers great speeds and it's a very good choice
for users in China.
If you wanna test this VPN they offer a seven day free trial
and after which you can subscribe
to at a very cheap pricing plans.
But of course it has its flaws, no VPN is perfect.
One of them is their customer support
could be more responsive.
Additionally the apps for Mac
and iOS generally have fewer features
than their non-Apple counterparts.
Number three, Vypr VPN, if you live in China, Russia
or Iran this can be the VPN for you.
Vypr VPN has strong encryptions
and their chameleon protocols allows
their VPN service to work in restrictive countries.
Additionally, this VPN is based in one of the most privacy
friendly countries in the world, Switzerland.

because Vypr VPN owns all of their servers.
The speeds are brilliant.
This makes the service for Netflix and torrenting as well.
Customer support it's available 24/7 via live chat
and their pricing plants are pretty decent,
including a 30 day money-back guarantee.
Just take note that they don't offer anonymous payments.
Number two, Surfshark VPN.
This monster is the real deal When it comes
to security and privacy for a good price,
let's break it down, Surfshark offers great features
with its military-grade encryption, leak protection,
multi hop, no border smoke and a sturdy kill switch.
The server list is decently large and the speeds are great.
Certainly more than enough for comfortable streaming
on Netflix or torrenting.
This is one of the cheapest VPN services out there
and possibly the cheapest when you consider
what you get for the money.
In addition to all the great features
one Surfshark's subscription will let you use the service
for unlimited number of accounts.

NordVPN stands out on our best list

performance based in the privacy friendly Panama.

It's in serious countries like China, Russia or Iran.
Recently NordVPN introduces
a new tunneling protocol in NordLinks.
Their adaptation of the revolutionary wired guard protocol.
This has pushed NordVPN ahead of every other VPN service
in terms of connection speeds across the world.
The service offers 24/7 live chat support which is awesome
and they also have a great self help section.
Finally, considering the caliber of the product,
NordVPN pricing plans are very reasonable.
Are there any downsides?
Well, we could mention the fact that NordVPN
doesn't have a router app available
but that's pretty much it.
As I've mentioned at the start of this video
I'm also going to share with you my personal checklist
when it comes to choosing a VPN provider.
But of course everyone has different needs
when it comes to using the internet.
So feel free to tweak this list based
on your personal preference.
Just remember it is very important to learn
how to choose wisely when it comes to getting a VPN service
because making a mistake can cost you money
and your online security.
So here are the top things you need to consider
when getting a VPN provider.
First server count and global spread.
Just remember the more the merrier,
next is speed and performance,
a good VPN will stall your connection speeds.
Also take note of their encryption and tunneling protocols.
Look for AES-256 encryption in conjunction
with open VPN wire guard or IKEv2 protocols.
Next jurisdiction take note
of where your VPN provider is based.
Make sure they're located in privacy friendly locations.
Another thing to note is geo-unblocking capabilities.
This is especially important if you use VPN
to access streaming services like Netflix.
Next is multi-platform support,
check to see if the VPN you are eyeing
supports the devices you're using.
Also another important factor to note is value for money.
Just remember pricier doesn't always mean better.
And lastly, customer service,
of course you'd want help right when you need it.
