You are welcome

Even if you're looking for speed most VPNs provide good speed so it's not a big deal here the more crucial thing I guess is the ping if you're a gamer for instance, you need a low ping, so that's why it's best to try both premium versions and see for yourself most of the VPNs have Free trial for their premium services

Best regards

    Hi Python,

    I'm Amr, an independent advisor.

    ProtonVPN is generally considered safe and reliable.

    ProtonVPN uses strong encryption methods and maintains a strict no-logs policy, which means they don't track or record your online activities.

    They are also based in Switzerland, a country known for strong privacy laws.

    However, it's important to note that while the basic version of ProtonVPN is free, it has limitations such as fewer servers and lower speeds compared to their paid plans.

    The free version also doesn't include their Secure Core feature, which routes your connection through multiple servers for additional security.

    As for comparing ProtonVPN to Google's VPN service, it depends on your specific needs and priorities.

    Google's VPN also provides strong encryption and a no-logs policy. However, some users might prefer ProtonVPN due to its base in Switzerland, as opposed to Google's base in the US.

    In terms of performance, speed, and features, you might find differences depending on the specific plan you choose.

    It's advisable to consider what you need from a VPN such as whether you need it for bypassing geo-restrictions, for general privacy, or for secure browsing on public Wi-Fi and choose a service that fits those needs best.

    I hope this is helpful. If you require any additional assistance, don't hesitate to respond to this.

    Best Regard

    Amr
