Whether you want to keep your browsing habits hidden from your internet provider, do some online banking on coffee shop wifi or watch your favourite shows from home while travelling abroad, a VPN could make your life much easier. Launched in 2018 as a budget-friendly disruptor, Surfshark has spent the last few years growing into one of the biggest behemoths in the VPN space. It now boasts more than 4,500 servers across 100 countries and, unlike most of its rivals, still lets you connect an unlimited number of devices on a single subscription.
Surfshark has matured a lot since I first reviewed it back in 2022. Now sharing a parent company with NordVPN, it continues to operate independently and has invested heavily in proving its trustworthiness through regular independent audits of its no-logs claims. Like many competitors, it’s no longer just a VPN either, expanding into data breach monitoring and antivirus software. Surfshark even has a tool designed to remove your personal information from online marketing databases.
