ExpressVPN was once a great VPN service provider, but it is now owned by Israeli spyware and malware distributor firm, Kape Technologies. The same goes for PIA VPN; it was indeed one of the best as well before it was sold to Kape Technologies. Funny enough, CyberGhost is also owned by Kape Technologies.
I don't know how anyone in their right mind would list these companies when a known spyware firm owns them. So, these VPNs are straight-up spyware on your device.
NordVPN is owned by Nord Security, which is based in Lithuania, so since it is in the EU, I would expect some decency and privacy from them. Surfshark merged with Nord Security in 2022, so using Surfshark or NordVPN does not make any difference. HOWEVER, the VPN I use has a proven track record of not keeping logs; therefore, there is no sharing of logs and no affiliate marketing. They were recently raided by Swedish police (since they are based in Sweden), who went back to their bunkers empty-handed because there was nothing to share.
This VPN has recently collaborated with Tor Project to release a privacy based browser. It's the famous:
