Best VPN?

After reading this thread and multiple other Reddit threads, I have come to the conclusion that the best VPN providers, along with their Christmas deals, are: NordVPN (http://nordvpn.com/vpndeal): I grabbed this one during the Christmas sale last year and honestly it’s been the most stable VPN I’ve

NOTICE: AO3 has been banned in the UAE. Here is what to do.

You shouldn’t use some free IP Changer(VPN), they are notorious for stealing data, being unsafe and malware infested, so you should always use a reputable service like Proton VPN which does offer a free plan. Edit: Google literally warned against such services this week: Tomsguide

What online subscription app that you use daily is 100% worth it?

I bought a plex Lifetime subscription and an unraid lifetime subscription, and the combination of the two has eliminated the need for any other paid services aside from a vpn (I use protonvpn). With a little research, I can self host nearly any service I could need

Seconding ProtonVPN, their free plan is very good. They also have a free private mail client, which I've been using for a while.

I can't be the only on noticing this, right?

I'm Japanese (Proton VPN only connects me to Japan, for some reason)

Youtube fought Ad Blockers, Now they're fighting VPNs?

Proton VPN or Mullvad set to Albania works and makes YouTube ad-free as well (Google / YouTube currently do not show any ads in Albania). I have found that YouTube blocks some countries and does not block others when using VPNs. Albania has worked consistently for me.

The Internet Is About to Lose Anonymity

For now you can still circumvent that stuff with a VPN, like Mullvad or Proton VPN for example. Specifically for YouTube, if you set the VPN to Albania, you won't even see any ads. Google / YouTube does currently not have ads there as it's not economically viable. But, it is important to speak up ag

Best Free VPN

Exactly. There are a ton of limitations with free vpns. They throttle the speed or limit the data or fill it with ads to annoy freeloaders into paying for it. I’ve been there, tried 10-15 free vpns only to end up paying for one anyway. NordVPN is excellent, but Proton isn't bad either. They're both
