The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Keygen cloud hosted plans start at $995 per month billed per domain, a floor aimed at established software vendors rather than solo developers; NordVPN the App Store listing states the app is free to download but is non-functional without purchasing a subscription first; no price figure appears anywhere in the listing itself, only the requirement to buy a plan before VPN access works.
