Amongst the top VPN protocols OpenVPN by far is the best. OpenVPN technology uses the highest levels (military standards) of encryption algorithms i.e. 256bit keys to secure your data transfers.
Apart from that, OpenVPN protocols also uses what is called "authenticating data" using digital certificates. This is just like using a passport to travel around the world, when you send data to a person the recipient can then certify the source of the data transfer.
OpenVPN is also known to have the fastest speeds even in the case of long distance connections that have latency. The protocol is highly recommended for streaming, downloading files and watching live TV. In addition to speeds, the protocol is stable and known to have fewer disconnections compared to its many counterparts.

OpenVPN has been my choice for a long time
Open VPN is best across all platform. PPTP is best for windows.
PPTP isn't quite considered secure in all terms like OpenVPN.

I've always been a fan of OpenVPN. I use it on all of my computers, and I manage an OpenVPN server on my datacenter machine.
Take a look here:

I prefer OpenVPN because it's open source, secure and very flexible, because all the protocol complexity is dispatched within a single UDP (or TCP) stream. It's comparatively easy to combine OpenVPN with other tunnels and proxies.
If you're stick with Windows and just make it working without caring about security, use the built-in PPTP.

- If you care about security while you don't shy doing some work, don't just ask for the best protocol. It's more work left to do.
- Use an isolated separated system for anonymous activites which isn't linked to your domestic identity.
- Use a second boot media/partition, a virtual machine or a dedicated old machine.
- Place a dedicated VPN linux router between your productive machine and your ISP which forces every outgoing connection over VPN. It still keeps you safe when your productive machine gets compromised.
- Inform yourself what the laws are. If you have a mandatory key disclosure law, don't encrypt your local machine but use a live CD excessively while renting&connecting to a offshore remote system anonymously where you're really operating from. If your country doesn't have a mandatory key disclosure law, encrypt everything.
Well everyone has its own significance , however I use zenmate and I never cared about protocols.
PPTP vs L2TP vs OpenVPN vs SSTP vs IKEv2
When surfing on the dark sites I prefer to stay anonymous. My VPN provider offers several protocols but i am not sure which one is the best
Any help would be welcome.
