Of course you've heard of NordVPN. The Panama-registered, Lithuania-headquartered VPN giant spends obscene amounts of money advertising its software. However, that tells us nothing about its true quality – just look at the state of disgraced YouTube sponsors like BetterHelp, Honey, and FTX. No. You need hands-on, impartial experts to test every inch of a product and cut through that marketing fluff. As VPN Editor at Tom's Guide, that's exactly what I do, day-in, day-out.

If you hadn't heard, Tuesday, January 28 is officially Data Privacy Day – and I'm absolutely here for it. As VPN Editor at Tom's Guide, I spend my time reviewing the best VPNs and other cybersecurity tech, and personal privacy is a topic that's very close to my heart. The thing is, none of these tools and apps will make much of a difference if you haven't got half a mind on proactively protecting your personal info in the first place.

The number of servers and locations a VPN has can make a big difference to your experience using it – and in recent years it has become a bit of an arms race between the best VPNs.

Amazon is the spiritual home of Black Friday. But, despite the massive savings offered on a huge range of products, there are still plenty of things that Bezos hasn't got lining his endless cyber-shelves. Most interesting – for me, anyway – are the dozens of Black Friday VPN deals that are only available directly from provider websites.

ExpressVPN has never been cheap – in fact, it has historically been one of the most expensive VPN providers. While there is a certain allure to something that's "reassuringly expensive," bagging a bargain can often be a little more tempting. This Black Friday VPN deal from ExpressVPN is trying stimulate your bargain-hunting Pavlovian response. How? Well, for once it's actually offering one. In true ExpressVPN style, this is far from the cheapest VPN deal on offer this year.

Black Friday is just days away, and interesting is really picking up for NordVPN Black Friday deals. NordVPN tops our list of the best VPNs, and while it's usually one of the more expensive VPNs overall, there are currently some very tempting discounts available. The headline is that NordVPN's Black Friday VPN deal drops the price of the base plan to $2.99 per month. That works out at a 74% saving, and is the cheapest it's been since last Black Friday. Higher plans are also discounted.

It feels like ExpressVPN has taken a bit of a battering from us here at Tom's Guide recently. Having held the top spot in our best VPN guide for several years, after our last ExpressVPN review it dropped down to #3 for a variety of reasons. ExpressVPN was really expensive, and when compared to the likes of NordVPN and Surfshark, it offered fairly few added extras to justify that high price.
