PIA can unblock US Netflix, but a number of other libraries such as Canada and Japan were off limits. While speeds were middling, PIA was neither the best or worst performer, and for many these speeds will be just the job. On WireGuard we saw speeds peak at a relatively disappointing 250Mbps. Speeds were changeable in our testing, and when using OpenVPN in the US, we saw averages of around 320Mbps. The apps are open source, the kill switch was totally effective in our testing, and the no-logs policy seems watertight – although an independent audit would make that concrete.
