There are a few out there.

You want one that has:

Multiple sites to connect to

Keeps No Logs

Accepts a form of payment you are comfortable with

Masks your IP number

Plugs WebRTC leaks (this is the protocol used for apps such as Facetime or Zoom)

If you want - that it has a canary warrant*

Speed

The only reason I mention the form of payment is that they have to process the payment. So, if you use a VPN and pay with your credit card, the VPN host might not keep any logs but, the credit card company will have a record that you pay them every month. This isn't a deal-breaker - just something I thought I'd point out.

Hope that helped and remember YMMV

* If the VPN is not keeping logs, then, really, a canary warrant is not a big deal if they don't have one. I think of a canary warrant as being a "backward" notice. It tells you that the VPN host has NOT received any letters or legal requests for information. It's called a canary to invoke the idea of coal miners who used to bring canary with them in the mine. If the canary died, they got out quickly because the air didn't have enough oxygen in it.

Here is how one VPN describes their canary: "Basically, a warrant canary is a statement by VPNs that they have not received any legal requests for disclosing user sensitive data. Once the VPN service receives a warrant, subpoena, or letter, it removes the warrant canary from its website."

I m counting on the sheer massive numbers of us horny men who love online porn to be too many men to meaningfully harrass or prosecute for enjoying legal, all adult actors, healthy, and endlessly varying porn.

That's basically the method I employ, and in the US if they do it, they are going to look for actual offenders (IE Child porn consumers) and not blanket things like adults watching other adults fuck each other on film.

Put another way, it would take far too many resources for them to go after everyone. So they will look for actual offenders and not the casual porn viewer.

A VPN won't hide you from much of anything if they are truly determined, anyhow. I look at VPN's more like I'm in a group of folks being chased by an angry bear... I don't have to outrun the bear, I just have to outrun at least one of the other people in the group.
