What the Community Says
NordVPN comes up a lot as a “solid all-rounder” VPN that’s easy to use and generally feels reliable day to day. People like the speed when everything’s working normally, and it’s often mentioned as a good pick for streaming devices like Firestick. It also gets praise for privacy features like no-logs claims and extras like Meshnet for connecting devices.
The biggest gripe is pricing and renewals: the intro deal can look great, then the renewal jumps hard and leaves people feeling burned. Some also complain about account and billing headaches (especially when mixing website subscriptions with Google Play), plus occasional slowdowns depending on protocol/server. And while many trust it, the old security-breach history still makes some folks uneasy about transparency.
Strengths
- Good everyday speeds
- Easy to use on phones and streaming devices
- Lots of servers and locations
- Privacy-focused features (no-logs claims, extra tools like Meshnet)
- Works well for many people with multiple devices
Weaknesses
- Renewal price can jump unexpectedly
- Billing and account login/device-limit issues
- Can be slow on some settings or servers
- Past security incident still worries some people
- Not the cheapest long-term option

But that said, I don't think this proposal -- requiring VPN companies to perform a..."
"@tnpla1 @R3SP0NZ3 @TheBritishIntel @NordVPN You can pay for Mulvad & Proton %100 anonymously with cash sent in an envelope. It's the perfect work around & fuck you to the government."
"Interestingly, PrivacyTools still recommends NordVPN as its top pick on its VPN page (as of January 2026), alongside Surfshark, ProtonVPN, and Mullvad. However, the site now operates more like a commercial/affiliate driven platform, with prominent affiliate links and promotions. For beginners just starting their privacy journey, this can be confusing or even counterproductive - recommending heavil..."
