PrivacyTools should be taken with a grain of salt these days. There was apparently a massive falling out.

Long story short the main guy went MIA and the rest of the crew and community decided over many months to create a new site since the main guy had the keys to the kingdom. Shortly after the move the guy came back and accused everyone of being against him. It's a whole drama thing. But the fact that PrivacyTools now highly recommends NordVPN and ExpressVPN tells me all I need to know and I'm sticking with the new PrivacyGuides

They were acquired by some VPN megacorp and AFAIK, all their credible postings and court stuff happened prior to that, so their credibility is unknown today
