Gotta love it when Vpn "review" site are such obvious affiliate farms.
Just stumbled upon a new one "vpnsociety.com"
The about us page claims that they have existed since 2020, but the domain was registered about three weeks ago, and their socials have basically zero followers.
They seem to have a link with security.org, another affiliate link farm. They seem to just use a template of buzzwords to create new sites on the fly, posing as a "leader in the field".
Quite scummy if you ask me.
