VPN ist übrigens nicht gleich VPN - Manche Services schaden mehr als sie nutzen, bzw. wäre man ohne sie genauso gut dran. Viele dieser VPN-Services loggen nämlich sämtliche Daten ihrer Benutzer und identifizieren diese auch im Zweifelsfall wenn die Staatsmacht anklopft. Andere widerum tun dies nicht... Am besten man informiert sich vorher bei einer unabhängigen Stelle über die Speicherwut des VPN-Anbieters! Ein absolutes Muss wenn man sich mit VPN beschäftigt ist der folgende Artikel
https://www.deepdotweb.com/2014/07/08/i ... t-or-shit/ dort gibt es auch eine Liste mit Providern die man benutzen, und solchen die man unbedingt vermeiden sollte.
A VPN service’s main selling points are security and privacy, but privacy is interpreted differently among VPN providers. Just ask former lulzsec member Cody Kretsinger (a.k.a. recursion), how private his VPN service was.
Kretsinger used a popular VPN called HideMyAss and engaged in activity that linked him, and his online persona “recursion,” to several high profile hacks, including unauthorized access to servers controlled by Sony Pictures. As it turns out HMA keeps logs of users’ IP addresses and logon/off times. A UK court order was issued to HMA to turn over the logs related to the offending account, which were then used to identify and arrest Kretsinger.
VPN providers can log web activity over their network, but it is more common to see VPN providers log users’ IP addresses, logon/off times and bandwidth usage. This logging activity allows providers to identify individuals abusing the service for fraud and spam, but in doing so they acquire information that can be used to identify individual users.
You can be absolutely sure if a VPN provider is pressured to cooperate with authorities and they have any information to identify you as the suspect you will be up shit creek and you will be there without a paddle. No one is going to go to jail for you.
This is why some VPN services go out of their way NOT to log any information that could possibly identify their customers. They cannot be forced to hand over incriminating information that they do not have.
