Private Internet Access

Came here for the list of VPNs Israeli companies control. Edit: Thank you. Cancelled PIA.

Well, PIA, ExpressVPN and Cyber Ghost are all owned by the same company. The same company that was well-known for distributing malware and adware before their rebrand in 2018.

Private Internet Access is also owned by Israel, use Mullvad. Edit: "Israeli firm buys Private Internet Access (PIA) VPN raising privacy concerns" December 9th, 2019 https://hackread.com/private-internet-access-pia-vpn-sold-israel-privacy-concerns/

Kape Technologies s'appellait avant Crossrider, et distribuait du malware israélien caché dans ses logiciels, la probabilité qu'il y en ait dans les clients

Kape is an Israeli VC firm that just buys other companies but with a focus on “privacy and security”. Well, Israel has a shady history when it comes to cybersecurity and privacy. When Kape bought PIA I cancelled my membership and moved to Proton. It might not be an issue for you but I use a VPN to a

PIA are owned by Kape now, which not only owns a bunch of VPN companies but was originally a browser toolbar company. The kind of toolbar that would try and avoid being uninstalled, would spam you with ads, etc.
