DNS-over-TLS (DoT) - A security protocol for encrypted DNS on a dedicated port 853. Some providers support port 443 which generally works everywhere while port 853 is often blocked by restrictive firewalls. DoT has two modes:
+
+
Oppurtunistic mode: the client attempts to form a DNS-over-TLS connection to the server on port 853 without performing certificate validation. If it fails, it will use unencrypted DNS.
+
Strict mode: the client connects to a specific hostname and performs certificate validation for it. If it fails, no DNS queries are made until it succeeds.
+
+
DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) - Similar to DoT, but uses HTTPS instead, being indistinguishable from "normal" HTTPS traffic on port 443.

Worth Mentioning and Additional Information
+
How to verify DNS is encrypted
-
-
Firefox comes with built-in DoH support with Cloudflare set as the default resolver, but can be configured to use any DoH resolver. Currently Mozilla is conducting studies before enabling DoH by default for all US-based Firefox users.
Check the website of your DNS provider. They may have a page for telling "you are using our DNS." Examples include AdGuard and Cloudflare.
+
If using Firefox's trusted recursive resolver (TRR), navigate to about:networking#dns. If the TRR column says "true" for some fields, you are using DoH.
QNAME Minimization - Run dig +short txt qnamemintest.internet.nl from the command-line (taken from this NLnet Labs presentation). If you are on Windows 10, run Resolve-DnsName -Type TXT -Name qnamemintest.internet.nl from the PowerShell. You should see this display: "HOORAY - QNAME minimisation is enabled on your resolver :)!"

Encrypted DNS clients for desktop:
+
+
Firefox comes with built-in DoH support with Cloudflare set as the default resolver, but can be configured to use any DoH resolver. Currently Mozilla is conducting studies before enabling DoH by default for all US-based Firefox users.
+
+
DNS over HTTPS can be enabled in Menu -> Preferences (about:preferences) -> Network Settings -> Enable DNS over HTTPS. Set "Use Provider" to "Custom", and enter your DoH provider's address.
+
Advanced users may enable it in about:config by setting network.trr.custom_uri and network.trr.uri as the address you find from the documentation of your DoH provider and network.trr.mode as 2. It may also be desirable to set network.security.esni.enabled to True in order to enable encrypted SNI and make sites supporting ESNI a bit more difficult to track.
We recommend selecting Private DNS provider hostname and entering the DoT address from documentation of your DoT provider to enable strict mode (see Terms above).

When running a enough recent kernel, you can check the CPU vulnerabilities it detects by tail -n +1 /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/*. By using tail -n +1 instead of cat, the file names are also visible.
+
+
+ In case you have an Intel CPU, you may notice "SMT vulnerable" display after running the tail command. To mitigate this, disable hyper-threading from the UEFI/BIOS. You can also take the following mitigation steps below if your system/distribution uses GRUB and supports /etc/default/grub.d/:
+
+
+
+
sudo mkdir /etc/default/grub.d/ to create a directory for additional grub configuration
+
echo GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="$GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT mds=full,nosmt" | sudo tee /etc/default/grub.d/mds.conf to create a new grub config file source with the echoed content
+
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg to generate a new grub config file including this new kernel boot flag
+
sudo reboot to reboot
+
after the reboot, check tail -n +1 /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/* again to see that MDS now says "SMT disabled."

Mullvad EUR €60/Year
+
Mullvad is a fast and inexpensive VPN with a serious focus on transparency and security, they have been in operation since 2009. It is the only VPN provider that currently meets our criteria for recommendation. Mullvad is based in Sweden and does not have a free trial. Visit mullvad.net to create an account.
+
409+ Servers
+
Mullvad has 409 servers in 38 countries at the time of writing this page. Typically the more servers a provider offers, the better: With hundreds of servers in operation, you are far more likely to find a fast connection and a server geographically closest to you.
+
WireGuard Support
+
In addition to standard OpenVPN connections, Mullvad supports Wireguard. Wireguard is an experimental protocol with theoretically better security and higher reliability, although it is not currently recommended for production use.
+
Independently Audited
+
Mullvad's VPN clients have been audited by Cure53 and Assured AB in a pentest report published at cure53.de. The security researchers concluded:
+
+
...Cure53 and Assured AB are happy with the results of the audit and the software leaves an overall positive impression. With security dedication of the in-house team at the Mullvad VPN compound, the testers have no doubts about the project being on the right track from a security standpoint.
+
+
Accepts Bitcoin
+
Mullvad in addition to accepting credit/debit cards and PayPal, accepts Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, and cash/local currency as anonymous forms of payment. They also accept Swish and bank wire transfers.
+
No Mobile Clients
+
While iOS and Android clients are reportedly in the works, mobile users will need to use a traditional OpenVPN client and configuration files, which are a bit more difficult to configure.
+
Extra Functionality
+
The Mullvad VPN clients have a built-in killswitch to block internet connections outside of the VPN. They also are able to automatically start on boot. The Mullvad website is also accessible via Tor at xcln5hkbriyklr6n.onion.
- Note: Using a VPN provider will not make you anonymous. But it will give you a better privacy. A VPN is not a tool for illegal activities. Don't rely on a "no log" policy.
+ Note: Using a VPN provider will not make you anonymous, but it will give you better privacy in certain situations. A VPN is not a tool for illegal activities. Don't rely on a "no log" policy.
ProtonVPN is a strong contender in the VPN space, and they have been in operation since 2016. ProtonVPN is based in Switzerland and offers a limited free pricing tier, as well as premium options. Unfortunately due to its lack of an independent security audit it does not meet the complete criteria for recommendation, see our notes below.
+
Not Audited
+
ProtonVPN has not undergone a security audit by an independent third party, and therefore cannot be strongly recommended at this time. We have still chosen to list it on this page with the assumption that an audit will be published soon:
+
+
We are currently undergoing a complete security audit of our VPN applications by a reputable Swiss security company. The results of the audit will be summarized in a public report for cases like this.
+
+
+
We will reevaluate this listing at the end of 2019 or when the aforementioned report has been published, whichever is sooner.
+
442+ Servers
+
ProtonVPN has 442 servers in 33 countries at the time of writing this page. Typically the more servers a provider offers, the better: With hundreds of servers in operation, you are far more likely to find a fast connection and a server geographically closest to you.
+
Accepts Bitcoin
+
ProtonVPN does technically accept Bitcoin payments, however you either need to have an existing account, or contact their support team in advance to register with Bitcoin.
+
Mobile Clients
+
In addition to providing standard OpenVPN configuration files, ProtonVPN has mobile clients for iOS or Android allowing for easy connections to their servers.
+
Extra Functionality
+
The ProtonVPN clients have a built-in killswitch to block internet connections outside of the VPN. They also are able to automatically start on boot. ProtonVPN also offers "Tor" servers allowing you to easily connect to onion sites, but we still strongly recommend using the official Tor Browser for this purpose.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
IVPN USD $100/Year
+
IVPN is another strong premium VPN provider, and they have been in operation since 2009. IVPN is based in Gibraltar and offers a 3 day free trial. Unfortunately due to its lack of an independent security audit it does not meet the complete criteria for recommendation, see our notes below.
+
No Security Audit
+
IVPN has undergone a no-logging audit from Cure53 which concluded in agreement with IVPN's no-logging claim. However, IVPN has not undergone a more comprehensive security audit by an independent third party, and therefore cannot be strongly recommended at this time. We have still chosen to list it on this page with the assumption that an audit will be published soon: The IVPN team reportedly plans to begin the process in September.
+
We will reevaluate this listing at the end of 2019 or when the aforementioned report has been published, whichever is sooner.
+
70+ Servers
+
IVPN has 70 servers in 29 countries at the time of writing this page. Typically the more servers a provider offers, the better. IVPN has a decent (but not exceptional) server count that will most likely provide adequate coverage to most users.
+
Accepts Bitcoin
+
In addition to accepting credit/debit cards and PayPal, IVPN accepts Bitcoin and cash/local currency (on annual plans) as anonymous forms of payment.
+
Mobile Clients
+
In addition to providing standard OpenVPN configuration files, IVPN has mobile clients for iOS or Android allowing for easy connections to their servers.
+
Extra Functionality
+
The IVPN clients have a built-in killswitch to block internet connections outside of the VPN. They also are able to automatically start on boot. IVPN also provides "AntiTracker" functionality, which blocks advertising networks and trackers from the network level.

+# ptio-font
+
+This font contains icons we need, which Font Awesome does not have.

+| Sailfish OS | `ptio-sailfish-os` | https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues/15498 |
+
+We also have custom Linux icon (`ptio-linux`), because I (@dawidpotocki) made it before and looks cleaner.
+And since we are bundling additional font anyway, why not.
+
+## Building
+
+To build the font, you will need some of the following tools installed.
+
+| Name | Notes |
+|--- |--- |
+| `make` | Use distro's package manager |
+| `ruby` | Use distro's package manager |
+| `bundler` | Run `gem install bundler` |
+| | |
+| | |
+| `woff-tools` | Use distro's package manager |
+| or | |
+| `yarn` or `npm` | Use distro's package manager |
+| `sfnt2woff` | Run `yarn global add sfnt2woff` or `npm install -g sfnt2woff` |
+
+Then just run the following commands to build the font:
+
+```
+$ cd font/
+$ bundle # it will install FontCustom
+$ make build # it will build a font and css
+```

Our VPN Provider Criteria
+
+
Please note we are not affiliated with any of the providers we recommend. This allows us to provide completely objective recommendations. We have developed a clear set of requirements for any VPN provider wishing to be recommended, including strong encryption, independent security audits, modern technology, and more. We suggest you familiarize yourself with this list before choosing a VPN provider, and conduct your own research to ensure the VPN provider you choose is as trustworthy as possible.
+
+
+
+
+
Jurisdiction
+
Operating outside the five/nine/fourteen-eyes countries is not a guarantee of privacy necessarily, and there are other factors to consider. However, we believe that avoiding these countries is important if you wish to avoid mass government dragnet surveillance, especially from the United States. Read our page on global mass surveillance and avoiding the US and UK to learn more about why we feel this is important.
+
+
+
Minimum to Qualify:
+
+
Operating outside the USA or other Five Eyes countries.
+
+
+
+
Best Case:
+
+
Operating outside the USA or other Fourteen Eyes countries.
+
Operating inside a country with strong consumer protection laws.
+
+
+
+
+
Technology
+
We require all our recommended VPN providers to provide OpenVPN configuration files to be used in any client. If a VPN provides their own custom client, we require a kill-switch to block network data leaks when disconnected.
+
+
+
Minimum to Qualify:
+
+
OpenVPN support.
+
Kill switch built in to clients.
+
+
+
+
Best Case:
+
+
OpenVPN and Wireguard support.
+
Kill-switch with highly configurable options (enable/disable on certain networks, on boot, etc.)
+
Easy-to-use mobile clients, especially open-source.
+
+
+
+
+
Anonymity
+
We prefer our recommended providers to collect as little data as possible. Not collecting personal information on registration, and accepting anonymous forms of payment are required.
+
+
+
Minimum to Qualify:
+
+
Bitcoin or cash payment option.
+
No personal information required to register: Only username, password, and email at most.
+
+
+
+
Best Case:
+
+
Accepts Bitcoin, cash, and other forms of cryptocurrency and/or anonymous payment options (gift cards, etc.)
+
No personal information accepted (autogenerated username, no email required, etc.)
+
+
+
+
+
Security
+
A VPN is pointless if it can't even provide adequate security. We require all our recommended providers to abide by current security standards for their OpenVPN connections. Ideally, they would use more future-proof encryption schemes by default. We also require an independent third-party to audit the provider's security. Ideally in a very comprehensive manner and on a repeated (yearly) basis.
+
+
+
Minimum to Qualify:
+
+
Strong Encryption Schemes: OpenVPN with SHA-256 authentication; RSA-2048 or better handshake; AES-256-GCM or AES-256-CBC data encryption.
+
Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS).
+
Published security audits from a reputable third-party firm.
+
+
+
+
Best Case:
+
+
Strongest Encryption: RSA-4096.
+
Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS).
+
Comprehensive published security audits from a reputable third-party firm.
+
Bug-bounty programs and/or a coordinated vulnerability-disclosure process
+
+
+
+
+
Trust
+
You wouldn't trust your finances to someone with a fake identity, so why trust them with your internet data? We require our recommended providers to be public about their ownership or leadership. We also would like to see frequent transparency reports, especially in regard to how government requests are handled.
+
+
+
Minimum to Qualify:
+
+
Public-facing leadership or ownership.
+
+
+
+
Best Case:
+
+
Public-facing leadership.
+
Frequent transparency reports.
+
+
+
+
+
Additional Functionality
+
While not strictly requirements, there are some factors we looked into when determining which providers to recommend. These include adblocking/tracker-blocking functionality, warrant canaries, multihop connections, excellent customer support, the number of allowed simultaneous connections, etc.
