Best VPN for iPhone and iPad to Change Location?

I’ve been using PIA myself, and it works great for Minecraft, my ping only goes up by about 10ms with the VPN on. I haven’t tested it with any other game yet, so I can’t say how it performs there.

How do other people hide their IP and use Tailscale without Mullvad?

You can make an exit node somewhere and have that exit node go through a commercial VPN at the router level. IDK why you wouldnt just use the Mullvad addon though. Its simple and cheap. I have a sub for the add on and PIA. I dont even bother with PIA, MUllvad is just better.

What's the best VPN to use with iOS?

I’d give PIA Vpn a hard pass. That might just be my opinion, but it lagged frequently and didn’t support some webs I use on my iOs. A BUMMER. One time it disconnected without warning, and I have no idea how long my activity was exposed. That was it for me. I recently switched to Bamboo VPN on a fami

Bluesky Blocks Access from Mississippi IP Addresses

Well this fucking sucks. I replaced Twitter with Bluesky since it’s not overrun with nazi bullshit and kept up with friends there. I love the freedom living in this shithole state offers. Edit: Private Internet Access (PIA) VPN works to keep accessing the site, but I’m still very pissed this is even

Anthony Albanese wants us to 'buy Australian'. But can we really avoid US products?

If you want a reliable VPN alternative, PIA is Canadian owned :) Edit: I have been informed that I was incorrect and it is in fact owner by a UK company called Kape Technologies PLC. Better than supporting American right now, but still not ideal. Maybe look at another solution :)

Every time I do a google search I get hit with this, is there any way to stop seeing this every time?

👆👆 this is the way 👆👆 I made the switch as well and life has been great with PIA. OP - This issue is pretty common with VPN’s in general with google.

Google launches NotebookLM for Android

I am in the US, and the Play Store tells me it is not available in my country, which is weird. I am using an unlocked Pixel 9 Pro XL. [Update]: I used a VPN (PIA) to put me in another US state (Main had a low ping so I used that one) and went back to the PlayStore. It worked right away.

Chopin Fun Facts?

BBC Composer of the Week recently featured Chopin. If you're in the UK, you should be able to listen to the episodes https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006tnxf/episodes/player?page=2 ... otherwise, try to access using a VPN service. I've had good results using PIA and setting my access point to Londo

iOS 19 Will Sync Public Wi-Fi Networks Across All Your Apple Devices

I had no idea you could do this. I use PIA and yep sure enough it has configurable settings in the app to let me specify how I want the VPN to connect. Thank you!
