   Some paid privacy services provide VPN, socks5, ssh, and privacy   
   oriented email services economically.   
      
   An example of a free and paid privacy service who provides mail and VPN,   
   but NOT socks5 has this to say against socks5.

   ... but I would consider that opinion 'biased' in that it doesn't   
   mention the fact that socks5 is faster for certain purposes in which   
   speed trumps encryption.
