steph93065 One VPN outfit with multiple brand names using the exact same network. Typical techie scam. Sell a substandard product, burn bridges with consumers, slap a new name on the same garbage and sell it again. Creating a corporation for a new label costs pocket change.

They all do. Every text, email and bit of data you have ever used is tracked and stored somewhere. Once quantum technologies get a little better then all that data will be usable and they will know you and what you will do better than yourself.

Anyone surprised by this needs to stay offline for their own good.
