About Tunnelcheck

An independent publication about VPNs, torrent safety, streaming and online privacy, built on sources you can check.

Updated November 13, 2026

What we do

We publish research reviews of VPN services, comparisons, and guides on torrent safety, streaming, online privacy and security basics. Each review is built from the public record: ownership, jurisdiction, independent audits, incidents, policies and official prices. Every claim links to its source. Read how we review.

We are not Opera

Until 2018 this domain was the home of the Opera VPN app, a product of the browser maker Opera. It later changed hands. Tunnelcheck has no connection to Opera, and Opera hasn't endorsed or reviewed anything here. Looking for Opera's own VPN? Opera documents it on its own website, and we review it independently in our Opera VPN review.

What we won't do

  • Claim tests we didn't run, or print speed and streaming scores.
  • List or link to piracy sites. Our torrent guides cover the technology, the law, security and legal sources.
  • Sell verdicts or places on our lists. Paid links are labelled "Sponsored link"; see how we make money.
  • Publish reviews under invented reviewer names.
