I can recommend Nord VPN, been with them for ages, found them always reliable and well priced.

Their ‘hack’ was a lot of hot air really, a config file on a single server in Finland was exposed (not user data), and they quickly went to lengths to make sure that the same thing wouldn’t happen again. Between a mix of how they use shared datacentres and also how they deploy their vpn servers.  I looked into it quite extensively at the time and was quite satisfied it wasn’t a problem and they acted very swiftly to avoid a recurrence.

I’m sure others are good services but I find Nord good so far.  I like to have a few countries profiles set up in my asus router to cater for devices that can’t use a vpn app (such as TVs etc) I can flip on to cater for those as necessary.

 

You can get referrals for additional free time from them too.
