VPN Planet, previously known as RUSVPN, was established in 2017. The company is headquartered in Romania and boasts an international team from diverse countries, including Egypt, Russia, Turkey, and Spain.
Although its last name, RUSVPN, might have implied a connection to Russia, it stood for Reliable, Unlimited, Secure. Since 2022, the VPN has operated under the name Planet VPN.
Previously, the VPN provider needed more comprehensive website data. However, it has made improvements in this regard. Nonetheless, the claim of being “the fastest and most secure VPN service” remains unsubstantiated.
