Editorial policy

Testing rules

• Every measurement we publish states the method, the region, the time of day and the number of samples.
• We publish distributions (p50, p95, worst sample), never a single flattering number.
• We test the cases where a tool does nothing. Those results are published with the same prominence as the good ones.
• We never invent data, and we never re-use a vendor's marketing figure as if we measured it.

Review rules

• A product may be recommended only after we have used it ourselves and documented the conditions.
• Every review must contain a "who should not buy this" section.
• Rankings are never sold. A vendor cannot pay for a position, a rating, or removal of a criticism.
• If a vendor changes pricing or features after publication, we update the page and note the change date.

Corrections

If you believe a number or claim is wrong, write to [email protected]. Substantive corrections are applied to the page with a dated note; we do not quietly delete.

Claims we refuse to make

• That our browser test shows your in-game ping.
• That any tool lowers ping in general, without a measured before-and-after in a stated configuration.
• That a product improves FPS, hardware performance or game netcode.

Vendor-supplied creatives

Some slots show a banner supplied by the vendor through the affiliate network. Those creatives are the vendor's own marketing material, licensed for exactly this use, and their claims are theirs — not a measurement we ran. Every such placement is marked as sponsored and links to our affiliate disclosure, and we never restate a vendor figure as our own finding. If a creative's claim ever contradicts something we have measured ourselves, we say so in the surrounding text instead of quietly running it.

Advertising and independence

We run no third-party advertising networks on this site. We do not accept paid guest posts. The only commercial links are clearly disclosed affiliate links — see the affiliate disclosure.
