VPNs are rushing away from Putin
 

VPN provider Private Internet Access has pulled out of Russia after Tsar Vlad Putin decided he wanted to spy on it all its traffic.

Apparently some of the company’s Russian servers were seized by coppers for not complying with the rules, which ask providers to log and hold all Russian internet traffic and session data for up to a year.

Writing in its bog, Private Internet Access said that the servers were stolen without any type of due process. However, if the authorities thought they might pick up some juicy data on people who don’t like the glorious reign of Tsar Putin, or some details of a top secret chocolate cake being manufactured by Mary Berry, they were disappointed.
