Is the basic plan of Proton VPN good enough to watch films on streaming on US servers from France with 1Mb/s internet ? ^^

Basic plan? You don't need to subscribe to any plan... it's free.

And yes as @whatamidoing said that watching Netflix through VPN might not be a good idea. As I think ultimately you'll have to sub to the subscription and I guess they check the details on your credit card and they can easily detect that you're not from US. So I think using VPN on Netflix isn't a good idea.

dont think it works like that, it cant block my account cause its a Global sevice that means i can travel when and where i want and be able to watch the content of the country that im in, credit card is not a big deal its the IP, netflix can block the ip that im watching (ip of the VPN's server ofc) cause when im in my own ip i do nothing bad.so lets just hope to finish watching all american stuff i want before they figure out how to stop them

also u said its free but i got a timer on it that saying that free trail will finish in 5days *hours * minutes * sec, is it okey if i just ignore ? or im in the Premium plan when i have acces to more stuff so whenever it finished i will be able to use only 3 countries with a low speed

PS: i want to get the basic plan cause it seems to be the cheapest on net, cause i don't want to spend more money on it

That must be a trial of the premium. I also had it enabled automatically when I created the account for the first time. It's just that in the premium there are more servers to choose from. So that means when your trial expires... then you'll only able to select only the free servers.

For example, you might have noticed right now you can connect to many countries and are not just limited to US, Netherlands and Japan. Also, under the list of servers in US, you will see that there are two servers named Free 1 and Free 2. So those two servers are the ones which you'll get in the free version. While the remaining are for the paid version.

So you shouldn't worry. As when the trial ends, it will switch to free version, and you will only able to connect to US, Netherlands and Japan. And even within them, you will only able to connect to free servers only. And btw those free servers aren't bad at all. I haven't checked the difference in speed though, but I haven't done that since I haven't experienced any kind of slow speed, and I comfortably watch videos off Crunchyroll without any lag. So I think the quality of the servers are good.

So don't worry about the trial, its just there to give you a taste of the premium version.

Free VPN's are often far less secured than Paid ones.

Paid or Not, they don't hide you 100%.

I use PIA, got 2 years for only $5 a month.

Blame that on licensing agreements.

no, I once used a free vpn years ago,

you have huge queues and then your speed is taxed so hard it takes ages to load a simple html webpage.

if you want to use a vpn you need to pay otherwise theres no point.

ProtonVPN is free, though you can only connect to US, Japan and Netherlands. On the plus side, there is no data cap. Also, there are no ads too.

The only reason I use VPN is to access Crunchyroll as it is not available in my country.

The 'free' VPNs without ads are mostly always tied into making your PC a zombie in a BotNET. Yes, it's pretty much signing up to a virus and I would not personally recommend it. There's one out there, which does just that. The way it works is you get a new IP Address, but at the same time, some others are using your own IP Address to do whatever they want too. It's merely bouncing between a large group of you. Whatever activities they do legal or not, gets push back to your own ISP (Internet Service Provider). As that's how it can run without 'costs'.

VPN dedicated servers otherwise cost money to run, keep up a good performance level, and maintain around the world. So logically, you should be paying for it.
