Now is not a bad time to try our pick of the best VPN service of 2024. ProtonVPN is on sale for 70 percent off 24-month subscriptions ($71.76 upfront) and 50 percent off 12-month plans ($59.88). That’s up to $3 per month for two years and $5 monthly for the one-year option.
ProtonVPN is Engadget’s favorite VPN service of 2024. While many services passed our tests with high marks, Proton’s service stood out for its independently audited no-logging policy, proven record of rejecting legal requests, open source code and peer review. a program that discloses potential risks. We also liked the user-friendly interface.
The company offers a limited free plan, but ProtonVPN Plus gives you access to 6,500 servers in over 110 countries. It also includes the company’s high-speed servers (10Gbps), BitTorrent support, a built-in ad blocker and the option to route your connection through multiple servers.
Other Proton accessories are also for sale. That includes Proton Mail, the company’s fully encrypted email service that put it on the map. You can get 12 months at a 60 percent discount ($23.88) or 24 months at a 30 percent discount ($83.76). ProtonMail recently added an AI-powered writing feature to its mail service. Even if you’re not a fan of robots putting words in your mouth, the service still offers up to 10 email addresses (including custom domain support), smart filters and labels, one-click unsubscribe and dedicated mobile and desktop apps.
