Net Neutrality vs Open DNS

[Britec]

There is a lot of scaremongering going on in Youtube about VPN and why you need one.

Some key things to remember.

1. Where is the company based? (You want a country that has no Data Retention Laws ie Japan etc)
2. Data Retention Laws?
3. No Logs Kept (not even for 30 days)
4. Good Encryption is a must (Strong 256-bit AES encryption)
5. DNS leak protection and kill switches
6. Plenty of servers to choose from
7. Fast Server Speeds
   

Countries that are good for VPN:


Argentina - No data retention law
Brazil - No data retention law
Bulgaria - Data retention law not applicable to VPN providers
Cyprus - Data retention law declared unconstitutional (?)
Czech Republic - No data retention law (declared unconstitutional)
Hong Kong - No data retention law (?)
Iceland - No data retention period specified (?); good privacy laws
Japan - No data retention law
Luxemburg - Data retention law not applicable to VPN providers
Netherlands - Data retention law not applicable to VPN providers
Panama - No data retention law
Romania - Data retention law declared unconstitutional
Serbia - Data retention law not applicable to VPN providers (?)
Sweden - Data retention law going into effect in May 2012, but (presumably) not applicable to VPNs
Taiwan - No data retention law (?) + seemingly good privacy laws
Ukraine - No data retention law
