Amazon isn’t the only company offering steep discounts right now. If you’ve been considering investing in a VPN (Virtual Private Network) to protect your privacy online, several reputable services are offering deals right now.
A VPN will encrypt all your data so a middle-man can’t snoop through it. And the VPN services we are recommending here have a no-log policy, so your data is not recorded anywhere. You can use VPN to protect your traffic when you’re in a public network, and you can use it to access blocked websites, or content from different countries (which is also useful when you’re traveling).
If you want to try a VPN, subscribe to one of the deals below, which come down to a couple of dollars a month. (And it’s better than using a free VPN because you don’t know what those services are doing with your data.)
Surfshark always has the best value plans and that’s true for the Prime Day sale as well. You get two years, plus two months free for $2.30/month (84% off).
NordVPN is another reliable and budget-friendly contender. You’ll get two years, plus three months free for $3.49/month.
Proton VPN is a great option if you’re privacy-conscious. Their two-year plan is 57% off, and the price is locked for a lifetime. So’ll get safe, unlimited VPN access at $4.99/month (billed at $156 every two years).
Private Internet Access is a trusted, reliable VPN provider, and their plans are currently deeply discounted. You’ll get 83% off their two-year plans, which comes down to just $2.11/month, and you get three months for free.
CyberGhost has a massively diverse server network, but not a massive sticker price. You can sign up for their 27-month plan for just $2.11/month (billed $56.97 upfront). That’s a steep discount from their usual price of $12.99/month.
TunnelBear is the simplest (and cutest) VPN service around. When someone just wants to try out a VPN service, this is what I suggest (it has a limited free plan). Their two-year unlimited plan is currently on sale for $4.17/month, billed $99.99 upfront for the year. That’s 58% off their usual rate.
Pure VPN is one of the few providers that offers a deep discount even on a one-year plan. With their current sale, you can get a 12-month subscription at $23.88, which comes to $1.99 per month.
IPVanish offers a minimalist app, and a straightforward interface. You get two years at just $2.92 per month, billed $69.99 upfront (Disclosure: IPVanish is owned by Ziff Davis, which also owns Lifehacker).
