What VPN provider do you use?

Very.

He is knowledgable, pragmatic and a staunch privacy advocate.

He’s trying to make a buck too, but I just ignore all that guff.

Most of what he says is stuff people should be listening to, like the NSA encrypted traffic firewall test last week.

Problem is most people are so apathetic about privacy these days they prefer not to hear it, or blow it off ignorantly.

Welcome to the age of the Orwellian Surveillance State and Involuntary Information Exploitation.

If I told you it wouldn’t be private anymore now would it?

everything we do and say can and will be used against us in a court of some kind eventually. Corporations are feeding us our desires as they know them to be based upon the info that we consume and this will be out undoing as we all become bubbleized and eventually incapable of relating to anyone whose opinion exists from outside our own bubble… eventually society will completely collapse into a hard right fascist religios state where religious and well as other freedoms will be suspended and the pope will decide everything for us. See Hegelian dialectal thinking on a web search for an understanding of how the process of thesis, antithesis, and synthesis works. also this is not directed at you personally i’m just chimimg in. At that point we will all find ourselves charged with crimes based upon that data. I’ll not say more lest i am regarded as a conspiracy theorist, which i am not.

what has happened in america is just a warmup exercise.

the sad truth is a vpn is still a corporation who is likely just hoarding your data to find out what you will do if you think no one is looking.

right left and center are no place for me. i fall outside them all.

I agree with you on VPN.

Let’s say…You still have some :female_detective: chance by using Whonix to buy toilet paper with burner phone and pay for it with Monero, then wait couple of hours when courier dropped box on some random parking lot you’ve pin dropped, before picking it up…

:shushing_face:

At least for now :sweat_smile:

Has anyone tried Mozillas new VPN service? Just asking.

@Luna mentioned it a few posts ago.

I haven’t tested Mozilla’s VPN service. However, I have run Mullvad’s VPN which I liked.

However, I have stopped using VPN. I don’t need it anymore. I used to have it for bittorrent :wink:

I have never used one but i was just wondering if anyone was. I support Mozilla and use Firefox so i would most likely use theirs if i were to use a VPN.

Yep, I also want to support Mozilla. I’ve been using Firefox for free since it arrived. Is getting time to give back!

I’ve been using it for just over a month, and it is definitely solid. I was disappointed that they only offered a .deb file and claimed to only support Ubuntu, but someone quickly made an AUR package.

One would think Mozilla would have released a Linux client for all distros but nothing surprises me these days.

I used to try Opera VPN.

Just heads-up for those who may read this later :face_with_monocle:

If you’re using VPN for something even remotely more serious, than :pirate_flag: torrents - it is EXTREMELY bad idea to use VPN provided by your browser (Mozilla VPN / Opera VPN) or e-mail client (Proton VPN).

It’s best to decouple any connections that you have to software / services that you’re using.
Compartmentalization is the king :crown:

Unfortunately, that is not a VPN, it is a proxy that they call a VPN.

Really? :laughing:
Wow…

So it’s proxy with good marketing then :rofl:

Sure, but the name VPN sounds better.

I know that Opera has a lot of long-term fans but under it’s current ownership it is completely untrustworthy for any purpose.

What if your extremely poor and the only decent free VPN you can get is ProtonVPN :disappointed_relieved:
