I've been playing with gpt-oss-20b and I'm really impressed. It runs flawlessly on my M4 Macbook Air. Nothing I've thrown at it has been an issue including code, simple analysis, and data crunching. Really well done. Local LLM's are my new obsession.

Today’s lesson: Get your value. If they’re not paying you what your time is worth, it’s not a suggestion, it’s your responsibility to take it back. Don't be afraid to ask, and don't be afraid to walk. Loyalty doesn’t pay rent, and self-respect doesn’t come from being silent.

Remember, VPNs don't make you anonymous online. Any VPN can say "no logs" but only a few have been tested by police, courts, or auditors and come out clean. I’m sure there are others, but these are the main ones that held up. Don’t forget to use code ISRAELI-INTEL for 30% off!

Worth mentioning:. ExpressVPN and PIA are both owned by Kape Technologies, formerly known as Crossrider a company with roots in adware and ties to Israeli intelligence. If you care about jurisdiction and ownership, this matters.

Private Internet Access (PIA) - @buyvpnservice. Subpoenaed in the US in two separate cases. Each time, they couldn’t provide user logs because none existed. They were also audited by Deloitte in 2022.

NordVPN - @NordVPN. Nord has never been subpoenaed (at least publicly), but they’ve undergone multiple independent audits. PwC Switzerland: 2018, 2020.Deloitte: 2022, 2023, 2024,. All confirmed their no-logs architecture.

Note: ProtonMail - @ProtonMail, a different service than their VPN offering, was forced to log IPs in 2021. Different laws apply. Don’t conflate the two.

Swiss courts compelled it to log and disclose a user’s IP and browser fingerprint.

Proton VPN - @ProtonVPN. In 2022, a Swiss court tried to force ProtonVPN to monitor user activity. Proton responded that it was impossible as they don’t log that data. The court accepted it. That’s a legal acknowledgment of their no-logs design.

Windscribe - @windscribecom. Greek prosecutors charged the CEO over activity linked to a Windscribe IP. They asked for logs. None existed. Case dropped in April 2025. Many lulz were had. They seem like a great team.

Windscribe was sued by a Greek court, which kicked off a 2 year legal battle. The case was dismissed because of our no-logs policy.

Mullvad - @mullvadnet. In April 2023, Swedish police raided Mullvad’s office. No advance notice. They wanted access to customer data. Mullvad told them they don’t store any. The police left with nothing. No logs, no identifying information. You can't fuck with Mullvad!.

The VPN Thread:. I hate threads but I had to do this after seeing so much crap out there. No marketing. No referral codes. VPNs that were forced to prove they don’t log your data and passed. Court orders, law enforcement seizure, and security audits. The facts. ⬇️
