Private Internet Access

🤣🤣🤣🤣 there are a lot of things to complain about but ping ain't 1 of of them, regarding VPN's. Have been using PIA since 2018 or something and has been smooth overall.

No, they also ask you to authenticate with their cookie, which is a total pain in the ass. I don't understand the need to put up additional arbitrary barriers. Private Internet Access (PIA) have started rotating IPs. This often means your IP is not stable long enough to be used here and you'll get U

Vpn like PIA, Proton or Nord or even Mullvad usually won't work on heavily censored network like China's GFW or similar. r/dumbclub is a good place to explore options. For me, I used to use justmysocks when I was in China, and it works pretty well. They will give you a subscription url that you can

Ini lebih oversimplifikasi sih. Ga salah, cuma ya.. mesti cari tahu lebih jauh. Fokus ke bagian sisi gelap. Emang sisi gelap vpn ada banyak, yang paling parah menurut saya adalah akuisisi Kape atas expressvpn, cyberghost, pia dll. Padahal Kape adalah perusahaan "distributor malware." Kalau VPN grati

No one knows what the hell they are doing internally right now. IP shuffling and port forward breakage have been common complaints for a while now. If you search the support FAQ and Knowledgebase, the WireGuard protocol is nowhere to be found and is not supported outside of their proprietary PIA cli

Maybe it is that particular VPN provider being flagged by AA. I’ve been on AA on my corporate VPN, PIA, and Pure VPN no issues.

I've been running PIA for years now with no issues. I run it from Windows Server 2025 and qbittorrent installed. Also, I run it with a split tunnel and have only qbittorrent run through the VPN. So far, after many years and GBs, everything is good.

I haven't read through that section of the TRaSH guide in a long time, but my guess is that most VPNs don't port forward so they impact how connectable you are. If you specifically get a VPN with port forwarding support (AirVPN, PIA, Proton, etc.) and set it up properly you'll be connectable and can

Personally, I would never do ANY file sharing without the use of a VPN. I've used PIA for over a decade. They may be slower than others (though I had poor performance with Proton as well), but they are by far the most economical. Don't think you can't be traced just because you're using SS/N+.

Je suis loin d'être un expert mais j'ai PIA et j'ai aucun problème avec ma configuration. Selon ce que je lis, NordVPN est bien apprécié. Mullvad serait un des meilleurs, mais c'est plus cher et lorsque je magasinais pour ça, le prix était relativement élevé.
