“Kape Technologies is a major player in the online privacy world, one of the three giants that collectively control the market. It owns many of the world’s top VPNs, including ExpressVPN, CyberGhost, Private Internet Access, ZenMate, Intego Antivirus, and a host of tech websites that promote its products. Kape brands can be seen sponsoring a wide array of public figures, such as Tucker Carlson, Angry Video Game Nerd, Drew Gooden, Lex Fridman, Cody Ko, Uncle Roger, and Ben Shapiro.”
“(Kape Technologies) It also bought a host of VPN review sites, such as vpnMentor and Wizcase – platforms that purport to supply readers with expert information about which VPN would be best for them. vpnMentor insists that this considerable conflict of interest does not affect their ratings.”
What do you think of all this?
MintPress News is pro-Iran, Syria and Russia (Wikipedia). But that doesn’t mean what they say here is false, just that we should approach it with our critical faculties working.
Good to know, thanks for sharing. I didn’t know about this,. It shows that is really hard to be correctly informed without dedicating an extra effort on many steps of the privacy way.
What was the comment? That the source is untrustworthy? Why was it removed?
I looked at the other articles on the site and that already caused some red flags. Then looked at the wiki and saw the same thing.
