What are the best vpn solutions? I think one of the best options is using a browser already having a VPN. Opera browser, even though I have never tried, claims have a VPN.

I use and love ExpressVPN, you can pay with bitcoin for almost 100% anonymous purchases, they keep no logs, have an internet kill switch.

Aren't all VPNs providing 100 % anonymity?

Thank you.

No, some of them only accept pay-pal or credit card which links back to your name. Most VPN's like Norton keep logs.

If you choose AirVPN, do not pay by credit card. :oldmad:
 
I've tried ZenMate VPN. Even after a trial period they have some servers to use.
