Are different country VPNs more or less prone to ransomware attacks?

Asked 2 years ago

Hi everyone! I use a VPN to stream online sports and recently got into darts but the provider is based in the UK. So far I've always set my country to USA and have had no issues with ransomware attacks. Does anyone know if a UK based VPN (or any other country for that matter) is more prone to attacks?
