Sounds like fun but rootkit anti cheat is too much for me.

Oh it was very important in centuries past, yes.

I didn't have a South African oligarch coup sponsored by the KGB on my bingo card.

I get you, but being a vegan requires zero risk of injury or incarceration.

Like I told the (much less pleasant) other user, it's no surprise that people are less brave than they'd like you to believe. That's just... human nature.

Every time I read about Brits and their Don't Mix Waters it reminds me of Koreans and their Fan Death.

We have mixed taps in the US because our water heaters are set high enough to kill Legionnaires bacteria.

Ah jeeze I was walking my dog and missed the cancer part. Sorry to hear you had to go through that and I hope it's gone for good.

Everything else though, spot on.

Weird; very similar story to mine.

I mean, you very clearly started the hostilities.

I guess they had to make more room on their servers for bots and morons.

Neither on Proton nor* Nord have I ever once had speeds anywhere close to what I am supposed to be getting.

Any review website will tell you that you should expect a 10-30% drop in speeds on VPN through the Proton or Nord servers at major cities, but I always get at least a 90% drop.

I don't think it's my ISP, because I've done traveling with random providers via coffee shops and hotels and it's always the same 30-60 Mbps cap.

Is everyone just chronically lying, via articles and anecdotal user reviews? Is there some conspiracy to ensure my personal speeds are lower than anyone else's on either provider's VPN?

Both possibilities seem absurdly unlikely so there must be something else at play, right? I wouldn't even know where to begin to troubleshoot this other than the switching servers, providers, and speed test tools dozens of times like I already have.
