TunnelBear - 5 stars, because "it's just so much fun to use."
I hate being a cynical ass (I really do) but this guy has no business at all running this website.
I'll not preach the long form of my usual VPN rant (briefly: they introduce another man-in-the-middle - who is probably anonymous to you, one who is very likely not subject to and utterly unaware of data protection laws, which makes you less safe rather than more).
People will read this site, think he knows what he's talking about, and get themselves into a lot of bother because of the bad advice this dude is giving out. He really needs to read up on what he's advocating here, as he clearly has no knowledge of the critical security factors behind these services.
You might think to yourself:
"Easy on, maybe he's writing for folks that don't care about security and just want US Netflix unblocked in their country."
And you would be right if not for the bottom of the page saying this:
"If you've found this site useful, please share it with a friend who you think would benefit from safer, private browsing."
So yeah, actively encouraging the spread of this terrible security advice is probably worth calling out.
