About Sam
Sam Chapman has been covering software, services and digital security for over eight years, and joined Yahoo in April 2025. He's tested dozens of VPNs, password managers, antivirus apps and other programs that claim to protect you from surveillance and cybercrime. Sam strongly believes that you shouldn't need technical training to defend your privacy rights online, and focuses on reviewing services that help keep the internet free, open, and anonymous. He holds a BA from Whitman College and an MFA from the University of Southern Maine. Sam is based in Portland, Oregon, and in his spare time likes to travel, develop board games, write fiction, and get into historically accurate sword fights.
