Bitmask vs ZoogVPN Free

Bitmask is a free, open-source VPN application from the LEAP Encryption Access Project, founded in 2012. It is designed to help protect online privacy while connecting users to vetted providers such as Riseup.net and The Calyx Institute. The app includes tools for evading internet controls, and private VPNs can be reached through a discreet URL or invite code. Individuals and collectives can also run private, circumvention-focused VPNs with its self-hostable system. Bitmask requires no accounts; the maker says it has no logs or tracking. Applications and server-side components are open source, and Bitmask is described as third-party audited. It runs on Android, Linux, macOS, Windows, and self-hosted deployments. Linux support covers the two latest Ubuntu LTS versions, while Debian and Arch packaging is unavailable. Windows has no kill switch and is not well battle tested for DNS or IP leaks. The listed plan costs nothing.
