Disclaimer: I know TurboVPN and the others mentioned are not good services to use, I’m strictly doing research. I’m not looking for VPN recommendations.

Genuinely wondering how these numbers are possible? 300M downloads and 8.35M reviews…? How?! Not even Amazon Shopping app or Disney+ have this many reviews. And surely NordVPN and Express VPN are considerable larger in both users and resources? I’ve never seen a sponsorship, not even once, from Turbo VPN. Are these numbers regional based? Is Turbo VPN more known in other regions? Is it easy to spoof these numbers?

Appreciate any comments on the matter, and have a nice day 🌻

    As I said, only very few people cares about their privacy, so it’s not really that shocking. I believe that the people that download these vpns don’t even knows what these companies are doing with their data afterwards. Can’t be scared of something happening to you if you don’t know it’s happening, or even what’s happening in the first place.

    The majority of netizens have a privacy literacy problem.
