No, it's not. This article is about Hola which was a VPN and how it was being used for malicious purposes.

I posted about a service I use that I find reliable and cheap that fills nearly (if not completely) the need that Hola once filled.
I am a 3rd party who has no connection to PIA and receive nothing for recommending them. There are countless cases of a HN post concerning some tech or concept where in the comments you can find alternatives that other HN'ers have recommended. I'm unsure how, given all of this, my comment is "completely unrelated to the article".
