Five years can feel like a commitment, but not for a quality VPN this cheap. Right now, you can get an iProVPN five-year subscription on sale for just $19.99 at StackSocial, down from its $360 list price.

At that price, the money isn't as much a concern as whether the service fits how you actually use the internet. So let's focus on that. iProVPN positions itself as a general-purpose VPN, not a niche privacy tool meant for power users. In day-to-day use, …
