Hotspot Shield is a perfect example, with super-fast speeds during our upload and download speed tests. Total security doesn't have to sacrifice speed. Slow customer support for non-paying users: If you're using the free version or simply shopping around Hotspot Shield's website, there's no live chat or phone support option.Strict data retention laws: The United States is not the best place to base a VPN service in, given its membership in Five Eyes, Nine Eyes, and 14 Eyes, but Hotspot Shield’s zero-logs policy means it has no data to give up in the first place.Only five simultaneous connections per account: Five just doesn't cut it for some people.
