Hotspotshield vs PIA

I had been using HSS for about a year.  I found it slow and was very sporadic in it's ability to stay stable.  I also didn't like the locations it used.  One day I went to the PIA site (with HSS invoked) and it found my exact IP location.  I clear all browser info yet the PIA page traced my IP location.  HSS would not comment on it except to check ipblocked.com.  I did and that site hid my location, yet PIA found it.  I then subscribed to PIA.  I retested and PIA could not find my location using the PIA home page.  The speeds at PIA are much faster and the product more stable. Plus there are more selections for connection servers, especially as I travel quite a lot internationally.  Would like to hear about other comparisons if anyone has any.  Just my $.02.

    I once had an account with HSS. There is no comparison. Stick with PIA. :)
