VPN proliferation continues to grow despite my concerns with some of the providers,

All the major VPN providers are in some way tied to a national intelligence agency. Not much of a secret when the companies have "former" intelligence agents on their boards or somewhere in their C-suite. For example, PIA is Mossad. Or how Nord has relationships with the CIA and NSA via it's data broker sister company. Thing is, national intelligence agencies don't give a fuck about piracy and if anything it's encouraged because it gets more people to route their Internet connections through a service.
