And you are right, the ISP is Amanah Tech because that's whom the data centers belong to. It's a hosting and colocation provider, which means other organizations can rent servers there. These are marked by the org field in some IP API responses: { "isp" : "Amanah Tech Inc.", "org" : "McAfee, Inc. - Plano", "as" : "AS32489 Amanah Tech Inc.", "query" : "184.75.215.242" } I wouldn't try honestly. Best thing you can do is not to use it privately. I made a small Bash function for such lookups. ip-api () { curl -s http://ip-api.com/$1 } IP-API.com

Hello! It's an Invision Power Board feature we don't like as well, but it's used only for your comfort. We do not exploit (if it was even possible) such data to profile you. We are anyway dropping IPB (the procedure is not trivial, we started it months ago but some more time is still needed). Also note that our web site and apps do not use tracking cookies, trackers or anything else and we run scripts to wipe out some IPB caching, just in case it was dangerous. If we had known in 2010 that IPB would have evolved in this way, our initial choice for the community and non-community forum would have probably been different ProtonMail had a court order to log and transmit the IP address of a specific account, they actually did not do it before they were served the subpoena. It's anyway a mail related issue, not a VPN one, where a subpoena can't indicate an e-mail address (we do not require an e-mail address in account data). Please note that contrarily to what numerous "competitors" did, in 11 years of activity AirVPN has never disclosed the identity of its customers, not a single one. In any case some skepticism is welcome and we invest very much on Tor (4% of worldwide Tor exit nodes traffic is supported economically by AirVPN), which is free for everyone and offers a very robust layer of anonymity. Use Tor for free in any case and especially if you can't trust us. Last but not least, the problem you have correctly underlined is negligible when compared to other dangers you must take into account. We wrote an article in 2013 to suggest how to defeat powerful adversaries, even when you can't trust one of your providers (including the VPN). It's an 8 years old article but it's still good and valid: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/54-using-airvpn-over-tor/?tab=comments#comment-1745 Kind regards
