"Is Pia Proxu still the best for privacy? Or are there better options now?"
Hey folks, been using pia proxu for a while now, and it’s been solid for me. But I’ve seen some new tools popping up, and I’m wondering if it’s still the go-to for privacy?
Like, does pia proxu still hold up against stuff like VPNs or other proxies? I know it’s fast and doesn’t log stuff, but are there any downsides? Sometimes I feel like the speeds dip, but idk if that’s just me.
Also, how’s the security these days? Heard mixed things, and I wanna make sure my data’s actually safe.
Would love to hear your thoughts—especially if you’ve tried alternatives. Cheers!
*(btw, sorry for typos, typing this on my phone lol)*
Pia Proxu is still decent, but honestly, there are better options now. I switched to NordVPN last year, and the speeds are way more consistent.
Pia Proxu was great for no logs, but Nord has a stricter policy and more servers. Plus, it’s better for streaming if that matters to you.
If you’re just using pia proxu for basic stuff, it’s fine. But for heavy use, I’d look elsewhere.
I’ve been using pia proxu for years, and it’s still my go-to. The no-logging policy is legit, and I’ve never had any issues with leaks.
Yeah, speeds can dip sometimes, but that’s true for any proxy or VPN. If you want alternatives, check out ProtonVPN—it’s solid for privacy too.
But imo, pia proxu is still top-tier if you don’t need fancy features.
Pia Proxu is okay, but it’s kinda outdated now. Tools like Mullvad or Windscribe offer better encryption and more features.
I used pia proxu for a while, but the lack of WireGuard support was a dealbreaker. Mullvad has it, and the speeds are insane.
If you’re serious about privacy, it’s worth upgrading.
Honestly, pia proxu is still one of the best for pure privacy. It’s simple, no-nonsense, and doesn’t try to upsell you like some VPNs.
The speed thing is hit or miss, but that’s proxies for you. If you want something faster, maybe try Tor over VPN? It’s slower but way more secure.
But for most people, pia proxu is plenty good.
Pia Proxu is fine, but it’s not the king anymore. Surfshark and ExpressVPN both have better speeds and more server options.
I switched because pia proxu kept dropping my connection. Surfshark has been rock-solid, and it’s cheap too.
If you’re happy with pia proxu, stick with it. But if you’re having issues, there are better choices now.
I dunno, pia proxu still works for me. It’s not the fastest, but it’s reliable and doesn’t log anything.
If you’re paranoid about privacy, maybe pair it with something like Tails OS. Overkill? Maybe. But better safe than sorry.
Alternatives are cool, but pia proxu gets the job done.
Thanks for all the replies! Super helpful.
I think I’ll stick with pia proxu for now but gonna test out Mullvad and ProtonVPN based on your suggestions. The speed drops were annoying, but I didn’t realize WireGuard was such a game-changer.
Anyone here tried both pia proxu and Mullvad? Curious how they compare in day-to-day use.
(Also, glad I’m not the only one who noticed the connection drops lol.)
