The VPN provider I use has servers in multiple countries. I was wondering if privacy laws would make it better to VPN to some countries over others when pirating.

What do you use now?

I switched to Proton VPN and the gluetun docker container for port forwarding.

I'm not a very privacy focused person, so I won't give you recommendations.

Just look at reviews that are recent and are from trustworthy but non-mainstream sources. There are some popular news sites that get revenue from paid links, which will give some less-than-ideal recommendations. It's best to choose a VPN provider with a history of passing 3rd-party audits.

I will say, though, that Mullvad has some great speeds and is stupid-easy to use.
