Bagaimana Aplikasi VPN Menipu Kalian?

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

Yeah you guys fucking suck.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 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.

Living in Turkmenistan: 75% of IPs blocked, 6Mbps max speed. Need Linux & VPN advice for 3D Freelancing.

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

PIA for qbittorent good?

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.

Using Nicotine+ for awhile now...

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+.

Combien d’abonnements mensuels avez-vous?

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.

Twitch Reconnection Issues (New issue)

Did they change something over the past 2 days? I was originally on PIA, no issues, but they revoked the black friday pricing a couple years ago so I decided to move. First thing I tried was Surfshark, but it has a very well known and persistant issue with twitch where it can't stay connected to the

Unable to install my VPN

I eventually gave up on PIA client and used Proton VPN. It seems to work well. I haven’t upgraded to premium yet, but the free version seems to connect without issue. I spent countless hours trying to get PIA client to work. It’s possible, but Bazzite makes it a nightmare. There were workarounds, bu

Switching to Proton VPN (PIA vs Proton)

I have both a PIA and Proton configuration with GluetunVPN on my tailscale network as exit nodes. Transfer speeds for the containers running behind gluetun are on track with the OP. However, I find Proton servers a bit less stable than PIA.
