Do you use a VPN?

[Sigenkt]

So I'm interested if people use VPNs and if so, which ones. Last week I decided that I need to get one. Did some research and right now I'm thinking between Surfshark, Vypr, TunnelBear. I'm particularly interested in surfshark more as it seems there's a lot of positive vibe around them on the web.

Basic free ones like hotspotshield I use if i'm in an emergency or need one to unblock content with filters on.

For a continous use I'd reccomend A VPN service which gives you unlimited connections such as : https://windscribe.com/ !

I don't use a VPN as, under UK law you can be asked to decrypt the VPN data if the government suspects you. If you don't encrypt you get 2 years in jail or 5 years if you're suspected of child pornography. Therefore, why using a VPN?

My friend instead, he uses VPN. He paid for Nord VPN and he's very happy about it

I have been using PureVPN for almost a couple years. It is pretty a decent software, but it can be buggy sometimes. Plus, it is one of the most affordable paid VPN services out there. In fact, they do accept cryptos as a payment

I'm using Surfshark, the one you mentioned. Just like windscribe it supports unlimited devices, one account and use it anywhere you want for no additional cost. It's a new VPN and they do release updates frequently, so pop-ups can be pretty common if you find that frustrating, on the other hand, the features they add are useful. They provide CleanWeb and Split-tunneling, both very useful tools for privacy protection. And their Christmas deal comes with a twist, when you make a payment you can choose to donate to Surfrider foundation to clean up the oceans and Surfshark will double that amount. All that for 1.99$/month, so I'd say it's a bargain.

Thanks for sharing! Bought it and donated! Never saw a cyber-tech company as such do a promotion with a bigger cause.

Sometimes I use VPN when I need to. Usually, when I'm traveling, because in some countries website like Reddit is unavailable.

Wow, didn't know that. Only heard something about China banning FB, Wiki, Google. Good to know beforehand and to be prepared for this inconvenience.

Haha, love the comparison. As mentioned before I already bought a provider called Surfshark. So far I'm really happy with their service. I use it mostly for streaming services, torrenting and general security. 

What do you use?

[3core]

I don't use VPN full-time, I only do access some restricted websites.

[Sigenkt]

Glad to see you bought and donated, I'm very interested in how much $ will they gather for the noble cause. I see Surfshark's Christmas deal is still active so hopefully, it is going well

Personally, the price was lower than I expected to spend on a VPN provider, So the $25 donation that I did didn't feel that high. It's amazing that they are matching every donation!

I tried using VPN but it never worked.

Since I'm using IOS, I'm using Hexatech VPN.

What's the issue that you encountered? I can't promise much, but maybe I could be of help.

It shouldn't be that hard to install a VPN.

[LUCKMCFLY]

I recommend HOTSPOT SHIELD or else looking for SoftEther VPN Client Manager, they are very reliable VPN and whenever I want I use them with enough success.

I am using it before and there are some free VPN's that are working but limited time only, there are lots of VPN that needs to be paid for us to use it eternity. LOL. They say that ExpressVPN is good but needs to be paid for us to continue using it.

But what about using VPN with Bitcointalk?

As far as I know sometimes you can get blocked if your IP is changing too often...

[Ailurophile]

Me and my husband try to use VPN before but it's not working properly so we both decided to delete it instead.
Out experience in using VPN, well it's working fine at first but it's stop working after while.

I used VPN because some website are banned to my country and my VPN I used is very useful to me because now I can access to that website who banned with the help of VPN. You can try to download different VPN and choose that suitable to your mobile phones or other gadgets you have.

Mostly, I use domestic VPN applications that are provided free of charge like Hola, free VPN.
