This is a largely theoretical concern and doesn't somehow mean you're automatically vulnerable, though those hackers hanging around your local wifi hotspot still have zero chance of cracking the encryption. Most competitors use at least AES-256-CBC. We weren't as impressed by Freedome's OpenVPN encryption, which turned out to be AES-128-CBC. Apps usually take 6-12 seconds to connect via OpenVPN, some take 20 seconds or more, so it's good to see a service which doesn't keep you waiting.

If we just wanted to reconnect to the last-but-one server, we could choose it there instead of opening the full location list, a smart little time-saver.Ĭonnection times were another highlight at a minimal 4-5 seconds. We noticed one clever usability plus, though: when we moved our mouse cursor over the current location, to click it and display the location list, the client displayed our recent locations. The client displays your recent locations when you mouse over the current location (Image credit: F-Secure) But it also explains the purpose of this (to protect against fraudulent use), how long the logs are kept (90 days), and points out that there's no way to identify what you did once you'd connected to the server. The page details some logging, including records of "the device ID and the public IP address from where the VPN client connects to our service", the duration of a session and the amount of bandwidth used.
This starts right at the top of the document, with simple statements of policy: "We do not share nor sell any of your traffic" "We do not read your traffic" "We do not know what traffic is yours." Privacy and loggingįreedome's privacy policy is short, clear and direct, focused on what you need and want to know, and so readable that it tramples all over the pages of most of the competition. And if you like what you see, and sign up, you're still protected by a 30-day money-back guarantee. Whatever you think of the pricing, F-Secure clearly thinks it can win you over, as it offers a free 5-day trial, no payment details required. F-Secure expects you to pay $69.99 to protect seven devices for one year give Surfshark $47.88 and it'll protect unlimited devices for two.į-Secure has a better value option in its seven device, two-year plan, though, which is priced at $3.75 per month for the first term, $4.99 on renewal. There's no monthly plan, but you can protect three devices for an equivalent $2.92 a month in year 1, $4.58 on renewal.Ĭovering seven devices costs $5.83 for the first year, $7.50 on renewal.
