AirVPN is also based out of Italy right? I wonder what will eventually happen for AirVPN which is highly recommended after Mullvad VPN closed their port forwarding offer.

    It really surprised me that they're based in Italy.

    Between all the Western countries it's the stupidest one to base a VPN company. The management risks prison time for little gain, why not Cyprus or the Caribbean like anyone else? Open a shell company in the Bahamas and still operate from Perugia if they really like to live in the Italian countryside

    Italy is a country controlled by copyright trolls, for an Italian citizen using them as a piracy VPN is an insane idea, why not just be unprotected at that point?

    It's almost like choosing China or Russia as base

      Yeah when I was looking for a replacement of Mullvad VPN AirVPN came to my radar but I didn't choose it because it was based on Italy which I was confused.

    It is every citizen's duty to make the government block as many IP addresses as possible. When the Italians have no Internet, maybe they'll reconsider.
