Title: Private Internet Access review: A low-price, high-value VPN.
Authors: SINGLETON, SAM (AUTHOR)
Source: PCWorld. Nov2025, Vol. 43 Issue 11, p59-65. 7p. 5 Color Photographs.
Subjects: Virtual private networks, Privacy, Right of privacy, Price wars, Information networks
Abstract: The article evaluates Private Internet Access (PIA) as a leading VPN service, highlighting its affordability, extensive server network, and strong privacy features. PIA allows unlimited simultaneous device connections and has undergone independent audits confirming its no-logs policy. Recent improvements include an expanded server network and a redesigned Android app, although the app's interface is noted as somewhat clunky. While PIA's connection speeds are average compared to competitors, it successfully accesses major streaming services and offers a robust set of customizable features, making it a versatile choice for users seeking a reliable VPN.
