What our measurements show

20 countries are in both lists. Our measurements confirm the listed country for IVPN in 20 of them and for OVPN in 20. In the rest, no location has been measured yet, or the measurement does not allow a conclusion.
So far, no measured location of either provider has its server outside the listed country without being marked as virtual.
Neither list has a field for virtual locations, so the lists do not tell you whether either provider uses any.
In 10 of the 20 countries both list, servers of both providers are in the same network, for example M247 Europe SRL in Austria. In those countries, switching to the other provider does not get you a different network.
On a first visit, IVPN's home page loads 0 advertising or analytics services and OVPN's loads 1, before anything is clicked.

From our own data: the server lists we read, our measurements, and our check of each home page. Apps, speed, and streaming are not tested.²
