Basically just want to know which VPN I should go with here. Right now Surfshark basic is $1.99 a month (on sale right now for Cyberweek). Nord basic is $2.69 (through their retention guy trying to get me back, otherwise $2.99). I'm thinking of going with Surfshark just to save the money, or...

Looking to pick up a few units and install 'tailscale' on them. I can't discount the GL.inet range but the cheaper the better. I've come across some Orange Pi zero3 units for fairly cheap ~40$au. Wondering what everyone thinks, will they do the job? All I need them to do is plug into a Poe...

Hello, I thought about getting VPN subscription but used some of VPN's free services. I am not sure what speeds are good or poor but I got around 2-5MB/s on some of them. On others I would get twice of that. Do I still need paid subscription if I want to use VPN for online banking and surfing...

I am having some problems with my OpenVPN configuration, and was looking for some guidance. What I've done so far I am running DD-WRT v3.0-r44715 which I flashed on a router. (As of writing, that is the most recent build of DD-WRT that is available.) I wanted to setup a VPN connection into my...

Word on the street is that PIA (Private Internet Access), the VPN that most know, and many love, has been sold. The buyer of PIA is purportedly Kape Technologies, who announced their intention to buy the parent company of PIA, LTMI Holdings (London Trust Media). The deal comes in at a reported...

Once per week I do an hour of work on the Windows 10 laptop at coffee shops using free wifi. Client emails, project tracking with Evernote, shopping on Amazon, Ebay, etc for clients. Is it recommended to get a VPN? What types of risks are there without having a VPN? Passwords stolen? Credit...

I was going to buy an IaaS server and setup a VPN so I wouldn't have to use a VPN service. This introduced me to SOCKS5. 1. a) Years ago when I used IaaS I don't remember so many bandwidth restrictions on cheaper tiers. Is it feasible to route heavy traffic without spending a fortune? b) I see...

Currently I'm looking for a trustable VPN for business. I was doing a research and found an article about 5 best VPN providers this year, but I want to hear feedback about them if you know one. Looks like the best deals has NordVPN Teams and Zscaler. How they work and which one you already have...

There's a perception that free VPNs provide an almost charitable privacy service. Users who are censored by their own government, for example, typically can't afford subscription VPN services, and often turn to free alternatives to circumvent oppressive restrictions. However, HackRead wrote up...

It appears Apple has changed their App Store rules and no longer allows an app to collect information about other apps installed for purposes of advertising/marketing. This rule change put Facebook's Onavo VPN app on the naughty list and Apple let them save face and pull it voluntarily before...

Amazingly enough, a company by the name of IPVanish, a VPN provider that claimed for years that it had a strict no-logging policy, was subpoenaed by Homeland security in a kiddie pr0n case, and did very much have logs, actually very specific usage logs, and turned those over to investigators...

In this edition of You Get What You Pay For, The Next Web points out that the EU's new GDPR laws are uncovering a lot of services and what they are doing with you data. Most notable, free VPN services which are mostly used to protect user privacy, seem to be an ugly offender when it comes to...

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but VPN's are supposed to provide user anonymity aren't they? However, it appears a lot of VPN providers have been leaking customers IP addresses via the WebRTC bug and some of them didn't even know what that was. To top it off some VPN providers are keeping...

So I have this TP link business class router I really like, but unfortunately it is too slow (my internet connection is 400Mbps and the TP link business router wont quite hit 300). I also have this TP link home router (archer c7) which does the speed just fine, but does not provide VPN (I really...

OK guys this is probably as stupid question but I'm not an IT guy so I figured I'd ask you interwebz experts. When I'm at the car dealer or coffee shop or hotel or wherever and am using their wifi, I've been told to use a VPN to up my security - which I do (Private Internet Access). Here's my...

Privacy researchers have accused Hotspot Shield VPN of logging user data and selling it to advertisers. In a complaint to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the Center for Democracy & Technology (CDT) requests a government investigation into the data security and data sharing practices of...

I have a dual Xeon processor server at home running Windows Sever 2012 R2 which runs pretty much 24/7 and am just learning about VPN's. Would it be feasible to use that as a home VPN server rather than pay an external service provider monthly for VPN service? If so what are some good tutorials...

Russia's two legislative bodies have passed a bill that bans the use of Tor, proxies, and VPNs, and is now on the desk of President Putin to get signed into law. Under the new bill Russian ISPs will have to implement the blocks that prevent users from using these services. We covered this back...

The actual news here is probably that China hasn’t already been doing it: the country has officially ordered state-run telecommunications firms, which include China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom, to bar people from using VPNs. It’s a decision that renders little shock, being that the...

Give our brothers at Mullvad some love! The company came on yesterday as a new sponsor for HardOCP and HardForum, so if you are looking to get your VPN on, give these guys a look as its services have held up with tests by our readers. It's "Only €5/month." What is a €? We still don't know...

Dark Reading has an article up regarding a Dtex Systems report indicating that 95% of all organizations have employees actively trying to bypass their corporate security measures at work. The report also shows that users are more frequently attempting to use private VPN services or TOR browsers...

So, All the current news about the Senate and the FCC reversing its position on privacy, and allowing ISP's to sell user data without user permission, has renewed my long standing interest in VPN's, but it is a confusing topic, and I'd love some input from those of you who know more about it...

I posted a deal from them a few weeks back, which I bought myself too. Just a few minutes ago I have received the notification about their black friday offer where they are giving free double-up on all packages in standard prices. It is working pretty fine to me and I'm thinking about going for...
