About Proton VPN

Proton VPN carries the credibility of its Swiss privacy heritage: open-source apps, published audits, and the rare free tier without data caps or ad snooping, funded by paid plans rather than your traffic. Secure Core routing bounces connections through hardened data centers. Speeds via VPN Accelerator got seriously competitive; the app count and extras keep growing.

  • NetShield ad-blocking
  • Port forwarding for P2P
  • Stealth anti-censorship protocol
