I would note that this list hasn’t been updated in 4 years. How did they gather these rankings exactly? The green/yellow/red categorizations could use some context as well.
Way better source for information about VPNs. https://www.techlore.tech/vpn
This is another great resource, although keep in mind some of the rankings are somewhat flawed, as Tom Spark uses a data-driven approach to ranking. For instance, ExpressVPN is ranked above Mullvad largely because it performs a lot better and is much more polished, but I would always recommend Mullvad over Express.
However, in terms of finding out how VPN's compare in functionality and performance, there is no better resource.
