That’s not a fair comparison. Measles are highly contagious and viruses can survive for hours on contaminated surfaces. HIV on the on the other hand requires much closer contact. I can share a glass with an HIV infected person all day without any risk, but staying in the same room a measle infected patient left an hour earlier would be a pretty dumb idea for an unvaccinated person.
Additionally the 95-95-95 goal¹ originally developed by the WHO is ambitious but far from eliminating all transmission of the HI virus.

¹ (95 % of people living with HIV knowing about their infection, of which 95 % (90 % of total) receive state-of-the-art treatment, of which 95% (86 % of total) reach undetectable viral load meaning they can’t infect others)

I know, it was largely exaggerated, but a smaller percentage makes the negative scenario drastically more realistic.

I hope so, but it could easily come the other way. “We are so used to/deeply integrated/in a close strategic partnership with Google therefore we rather lose 5 % of our customers that care about privacy and are a pain in the ass for our data-driven business.”

If you want to invade another country, just don’t. Ukraine has no reason to play nice with this war criminal.

Can’t tell which works best but here’s my experience with Windscribe:
(+) there is a native Linux app
(+) it’s open source
(+) they provide a pacman package
(-) only as download from their website
(+) they provide an online config generator for all supported protocols like Wireguard
