Most Free VPN Services Are Doubtful

15 November 2018 442 VPN News

Metric Labs, who own the Top10VPN portal, report their research about top 20 free VPN applications available in the Google Play and App Store. And only a few of these hugely popular apps, which have hundreds of millions of installs worldwide, do anywhere enough to deserve the trust of consumers looking to protect their privacy.

It turned out that approximately 60% of the applications were created by Chinese developers or belong to companies related to China. 17 of 30 applications (10 applications are available in both directories) were legally registered in China or have Chinese owners.

Worse, the most of free VPN applications have no privacy protection and even technical support either.

According to the results, 86% of applications have an “unacceptable privacy policy”. For example, they don’t promise to keep traffic logs and use patterned rules of confidentiality.
And sometimes applications do not have the privacy policy at all or reserve the legal right to track users and transfer their data to third parties.

64% of applications do not even have an official site for their service and accessible only through mobile app stores.

Experts sum up that Google and Apple do not care much about verifying developers. As a result, the solutions of companies are found in the top, about which there is no information on the network, and the descriptions of the applications sometimes contain disinformation.

In order not to become a victim of fraudsters, do not trust the free VPN services. Use GuruVPN and be sure of reliable protection of your connection!
