Sure, you're always trusting a VPN at their word that they don't log, the above gives a detailed analysis of which ones you probably shouldn't trust. You can always host your own: https://github.com/n1trux/awesome-sysadmin#vpn

You can also VPN chain (l2iptables), tunnel over TLS, etc. That gist post is pretty dumb imo

How many non-technical people read things on github? I'm seriously wondering, because whenever I see a link to something posted on github I always assume that it's intended for an audience with some technical understanding. I know that some laws and what not have put up onto github to provide easier access, but it never seemed like that non-technical people started using it.

I think if someone shared it to their facebook, a non-technical user wouldn't be much less likely to read it than say a medium article. Non-technical users don't really care about the domain.

Certainly most readers of github are technical, but that doesn't necessarily make it less suitable for non-technical people.
