Most VPN Services are Terrible

Short version: I strongly do not recommend using any of these providers. You are, of course, free to use whatever you like. My TL;DR advice: Roll your own and use Algo or Streisand. For messaging & voice, use Signal. For increased anonymity, use Tor for desktop (though recognize that doing so may actually put you at greater risk), and Onion Browser for mobile.

This mini-rant came on the heels of an interesting twitter discussion: https://twitter.com/kennwhite/status/591074055018582016

Some notes on codes of conduct from a conference organizer's perspective

1. The customers of a Code of Conduct are the people whom it is protecting. For tech conferences, that means marginalized people.
2. The Code of Conduct is a promise to its customers from the conference organizers that they will be in a safe space, and that they will be protected and given the benefit of the doubt in the event of something bad happening.
3. Thus the wording of a code of conduct should be decided by its customers. The Geek Feminism wiki hosts an example code of conduct: http://geekfeminism.wikia.com/wiki/Anti-harassment_policy_resources
4. The legal basis of a code of conduct is my right, as an event organizer, to kick anybody out of my private event for any reason, even if they have paid. This happens all the time, often with the most flimsy excuses: http://www.hannahettinger.com/guest-post-by-clare/

If you, as a non-customer of the CoC, are not
