Thank You PIA for Protecting Our Privacy Once Again!

OpenVPN

I would like to thank each and every person who works at London Trust Media and Private Internet Access for always staying true to your commitment to protect customer privacy above all else. I was shocked to hear the news about the South Korean server last night because I firmly believed that the strong privacy laws within the country could prevent warrantless electronic surveillance but I guess I was wrong.
I've always believed in Private Internet Access and their commitment to privacy on the Internet and this latest news has definitely reaffirmed that belief. 

Thank You Private Internet Access!

Yes, thanks PIA. I mean, it seems increasingly possible that next it will be Turkey who wants a backdoor or tries to mirror PIA's servers because the present govt wants to de-annonymize its citizens, then it could be that the Spanish govt wants a backdoor/mirror the PIA servers in their datacenter space in Spain, because there are some people they want to de-annonymize who are supporters of an independent Catalonia. It could also happen in New zealand that their govt is very interested in being a rubber-stamp of the U.S. govt, and might want to prosecute other file-sharers/torrening individuals in N.Z. like they did to Kim Dotcom. There literally is not a single country on the list that PIA has servers in, that doesnt have some political turmoil so the excuse of govts will always be "we want to deannonymize everyone all the time, because hey you could be a person of interest to us someday, so we will just put a tab on you since birth". I cant believe, that we the citizens have to get used to this insane heavy-handedness of govts all over the world, and that its upto VPN companies to keep their users activity on the internet private (private, not anonymous of course) because the ISP's have basically been sucked into a deal with the govts that they cant refuse. 

So PIA, this is just another important lesson to all of us, they tried this in Russia, now in South Korea. Then there was the German data center Leaseweb which was upto no good. Its literally possible that ANY of the current 28 countries and growing, could play dirty at ANYTIME of their choosing going forward. And we KNOW they will not play fair, and they will NOT follow any semblance of procedure or due process to get what they want. We just want PIA to continue to realize that the strict privacy policy as outlined by themselves, is what they follow internally and externally, so that it will NEVER EVER happens to PIA what happened to the reputation of Hidemyass, EarthVPN, PureVPN and other disgraced VPN players.

I would also like to point out, that pulling the severs like this from South Korea, must have costed $$$ lost to PIA, and they went ahead and did it anyway. Bravo.
