I don't think Tom Scott ever promoted a VPN product in a YouTube video. He's actually quite selective with his brand deals. From his contact page regarding ads:

I don't think Tom Scott ever promoted a VPN product in a YouTube video. He's actually quite selective with his brand deals. From his contact page regarding ads: * If you're asking about pay-per-click or pay-per-lead advertising, the answer will be no. Please don't ask. * I do not review products or apps. * I am unable to accept sponsorship from apps or games that contain microtransactions or gambling.

> I wrote a more honest advert for VPN services and I found a company that was willing to sponsor the video. Unfortunately they kept asking for changes, and we disagreed on those, so at the last minute, I have had to blank their name out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVDQEoe6ZWY#t=5m52s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVDQEoe6ZWY#t=5m52s

  There is a good chance he made that up as a more interesting plot for the video.
