Mom needs a VPN for her move to Costa Rica, that much we know. She wants to be able to watch streaming services and browse the web as if she were still back in the states.
Any advice?

Please, if you are using a free VPN, other than ProtonVPN, stop!!! If you need a VPN then pay for it. And don't pick some cheap one with no reputation either. Pick a reputable one.

They are hugely expensive to run and if they are free, run by some unknown, they are getting their profits in ways you won't like.
