When you use a browser, there is a certificate scheme for authenticity,
and SSL/TLS is used for end-to-end protection. That protection (TLS 3)
is provided by the endpoints. This is why we have an "HTTPS Everywhere"
campaign, to ensure that even naive conversation is covered by some
sort of crypto. "All our eggs, are in one TLS 3 basket".

NordVPN should be able to add another layer, on the path from
you to NordVPN. What happens after that, only has the assurance of the
SSL/TLS that your HTTPS browser session is using.

I would give you an Internet article on the top... if there was
an honest one to be had. As long as Nord pays people to be promoted,
it's unlikely a security researcher PowerPoint slide is going to
appear on anyones screen. All the diagrams are made by Nord.

I hope you know that Security researchers are suppressed by
the effects of DMCA legislation. When the original Skype was
analyzed by security researchers, they had to put up a
web page giving their lawyers opinion of what the odds
were of them going to jail.

If you're wondering why you don't feel so safe, that's why OK ?
It's not like you can trust Pauls opinion on the topic.
Paul is not a security researcher, nor does he play the
part of one on TV.
