I think this is missing the question on whether multihop VPN should be used. It's not even opened on the page what multihop means, it's only quickly mentioned on the page once.

While not strictly requirements, there are some factors we looked into when determining which providers to recommend. These include ... multihop connections...

@dngray commented in #1753 :

Thing about multi-hopping VPNs, is the route is still static and doesn't regularly change. If a person feels they have that kind of threat model then Tor is more appropriate.

So I wonder why do we even mention multihop on the site?

I was reminded of this by NordVPN advertisement mentioned at Matrix.
