Proton VPN has been recognized as a top free VPN service, offering strong online security and a growing network of servers. The free version has no bandwidth limits but lacks streaming support, while the paid plans are competitively priced. The service has improved significantly, now featuring over 8,700 servers in 112 countries, up from 1,800 servers in 65 countries two years ago. It provides advanced security features, including full disk encryption and a zero-logging policy, appealing to privacy-conscious users. Proton VPN's free service is reliable, but users may experience slower speeds and limited device compatibility. The paid plans allow for multiple device connections and include features like dedicated streaming servers, enhancing overall performance and usability.
