NordVPN is a popular VPN provider with a large and active user base. That popularity may have something to do with NordVPN’s strong stance on privacy and its refusal to disclose any user information to third-party advertisers.

In early 2018, NordVPN was added to the Chinese government’s “Great Firewall of China” blocking list. This was likely due to NordVPN’s refusal to cooperate with the Chinese government’s mandatory data collection and surveillance program.

NordVPN has consistently refused to disclose user information to third-party advertisers. This privacy policy has likely led to NordVPN being blacklisted by the Chinese government.
