Private Internet Access (PIA) doesn't seem to be mentioned in the article nor HN posts.
I think that must be good then. I've been a happy PIA customer for about 5 years. They probably arn't the fastest (I get aprox 3.5mbit/sec on them) but so far none of the mud slung against them sticks.
There's a lot of shady shit in the VPN industry, so glad they are above it.
I used PIA for a long time, but at some point it seemed like every single site I visited triggered that Cloudflare protection page that forces you to fill out Google Recaptcha before proceeding.
I haven't seen a Cloudflare page in ages and I use them often. I honestly cannot recall the last time when browsing the web I saw a Cloudflare page, with any ISP or VPN.

That's kind of par for the course on a public VPN -- your traffic is being aggregated with a lot of other users, some of whom will be behaving in unusual ways.
