    I remember @phenomlab saying he only trusts Nord VPN. I looked and compared all the top 5 VPNs last night and Nord usually does come out on top above Proton and Express VPN which seems to have fallen by the way side.

    Do you think Nord’s popularity is because of their aggressive marketing campaigns, the fact YouTube creators will get more from an affiliate link from Nord than another competitor so put it as number 1, or do you think It’s probably a mix because the product delivers?

    @JAC this is a good question and certainly one that will trigger debate. Nord has a good track record for privacy with a no log policy, and has an independent audit to certify this as fact.

    They also have the most number of servers scattered around the globe and also pioneered NordLynx which is based on the their existing Wireguard protocol.

    I suspect much of their popularity comes down to their marketing as you suggest with YouTube influencers and affiliate links, although they aren’t the only brand leveraging this area.
