Surfshark just dropped a teaser on their website, and it has our attention. The company says it has been building something from scratch and in their words: a “different approach” to how a VPN works.

Details are thin right now, but here’s what Surfshark has revealed so far:

• Record-breaking performance
• Custom-built VPN technology
• Future-proof security designed to hold up against new threats

The new VPN protocol has already passed an independent audit by Cure53, which is a good sign for anyone concerned about privacy.

macOS users will get first access, though Surfshark hasn’t shared a timeline for other platforms yet. For those of us running VPNs on Firesticks and Android TV/Google TV boxes, the big question is when this arrives on our streaming devices.

This is one reason Surfshark has held the #1 spot in our VPN Rankings since August 2022. They don’t sit still. We see frequent updates from them, and now they’re investing in a ground-up protocol rebuild.

That kind of commitment to improving their product is hard to find in the VPN space, and it’s a big part of why we keep recommending them.

We’ll share more details once Surfshark makes a full announcement. For now, I’m curious to hear from you guys.
