Hal,

My apologies for including the Surfbouncer link. I was just mentioning a service I have found useful and reliable. Regarding your comments, I believe I was clear that no service is completely trustworthy or anonymous. However, in my case the concern is the last mile. If I can get out to the world encrypted it serves my purposes. Others needs may be different. While Tor works, even with the possible problems I mentioned in my first post, it’s main weakness is speed. I find the VPN a faster option overall.
