Holy Crap Has SurfShark Lost Their Minds?

It's almost like their parent company (and competitor) is trying to push SurfShark out of business.
When I subscribed it was cheap and I caught a deal and reupped for 4 years with a great deal. Now I am looking at current pricing $111 USD/yr at current exchange. Are they off their rocker? For what? The same freakin' VPN POPs that every other VPN service offers. I wonder if that price includes priority connections at the POPs, your service gets bandwidth priority, still I don't need it. They are now trying to throw in everything you could think off including an A/V at a much higher subscription price. Man, their AVG roots are starting to show. VPNs are pretty useless for general surfing. You can't buy anything and sites just block you because they don't want annon visitors. Can't blame them, crooks and vandals hide behind them.

Their basic subscription is about $67 USD for 27 months? If you don't need/want all the other bs, it seems like a reasonable price. I seem to recall if you had a subscription and it was up for renewal, they would try to get top dollar from you, but if you cancel, they come back with the 'new' user price.
 
Its all about the price of Oil and Donald Trumps underwear bill.
 
Those deals are OK. Here's the thing, it's an auto renewal at ~$110/tr for the starter.
I did chase one of the 3yr deals for cheap, so I am good until 2030. Just cancelled my auto-renewal.
I really don't want all the bundled crap they keep nagging me about. Reminds me of their AVG roots.
Most VPNs aren't really worth much anymore. Most of their IPs get flagged thanks to CloudFlare, the whores.
This looks like a good deal. >>>

Personally I use Mullvad myself
