You can add Windscribe to that list. They've been shown to respect customers and offer port forwarding.
I think people forget how trash windscribe was for years or that they had one of their servers seized and private keys stolen in 2021.
They have made a lot of progress but its still odd how people ignore their past history.
You might want to add the proper context that the servers were siezed by authorities (so not stolen) and they were very transparent about the fact that it was a legacy system. They also followed with a plan to rectify, including third part audits. Every organization makes mistakes, it's how they respond that matters.
If you're looking for a VPN provider that hasn't had issues ever in their history, good luck. You'll just end up with the ones who lie and cover up incidents.

' they had one of their servers seized and private keys stolen in 2021 ' they never said servers were stolen
