I'm actually Canadian.
you should read what PIA's boss thinks of moderation. Your viewpoint loses. You're not a true American if you support restriction of freedom.
I'm in full control of my personal privacy, and understand that anything in the forums is up to PIA's discretion. I would go as far to say that the Harmful Attacks by some users of the forums are more attacking of free speech than anything that the moderation has done.
What is your goal with PIA?
Our goal with PIA is to bring back the Wild Wild West that we loved so much, because it creates a system in which people are able to learn what they wish to learn, say what they wish to say, experience what they wish to experience, and create what they wish to create. I know this sounds corny, but an internet without boundaries or limitations, in which we can achieve our dreams, is our goal.--Andrew Lee, PIA boss and founder.
I guess his philosophy doesn't extend to his forums.

It seems to me like you are constantly taking this quote out of context.
It's their forum and policies change. A years old quote may not reflect the current status of what is applicable
PIA is still the same company with the same CEO and, did you know, we already forced PIA to remove the logging from their forum TOS? how can you trust a company to not log and monitor their vpn when they are logging and monitoring their forums?
half the battle has been won already as they removed the logging of ip addresses from the forum TOS.
Did you know that Andrew Lee isn't actually the CEO any more. Legit

I have no special respect for Britain, but there are worse nations.
You said "they love freedom."
While I respect your opinion, I do not really agree that the English Slave trade ended due to "principle". Unless you mean financial principle.
And England has a definition of "freedom" that matches no other nation on Earth. I as an American think this is more bad than good, but I am open to the idea that I could be mistaken. There is much about England that I still do not understand.
Did English slavery end about the same time Monarchical rule was replaced with Parliamentary rule? (I could look it up, but that is a rather complex set of subjects that would be a puzzle to determine on Wikipedia.)
