The romanticized version of working from cafes abroad versus what it's actually like

I'm always so confused by these kinds of posts. Like, did these OPs have zero real-world experience coming into this? It's just baffling that someone would be like "Wait, what? My life isn't an Instagram reel? Why didn't someone tell me!" No one should have needed to tell you that, OP. And you don't

Every page you print contains invisible yellow tracking dots

Even if you use a VPN such as PureVPN to download a leaked document anonymously, the moment you print it you are stamping it with your hardware ID. To be truly anonymous you need a black and white only printer or a dot matrix printer which do not use this technology. https://www.purevpn.com/order Wt

At my wits end with setting up remote access

I was on CGnat and was unable to be taken off. I set up PureVPN with the port forwarding option and I was able to use remote access

What in the indoctrination hell is this? Idaho is turning into Iran.

Do not trust any of the YouTube VPNs like Nord, Express, etc. Almost all of them have been involved in some level of breach of privacy. Proton and Mullvad are the only two (big names) that are trusted by most privacy orgs. Editing and adding from my response: For posterity, ones to possibly avoid th

Surfshark

Surfshark does not support port forwarding, so it's a poor choice to use with Bittorrent. PIA, Proton, or PureVPN would be better choices, as they support port forwarding.

I read one thread about public wifi risks and now I can't stop thinking about it at coffee shops

Every time I use public wifi, I simply use a VPN, but the free ones are usually terrible. Last Black Friday, I purchased one for about $1.70 a month. Since Black Friday is coming up and practically everyone has some campaigns, get a VPN service so you won't have to worry about it. PureVPN works well

Plex + Starlink + Proton VPN = indirect connection(s)???

I use PureVPN with port forwarding (bought a really cheap multi year plan years ago, not planning on renewing) to get around my providers CG NAT. It works, but only after I set up the specific ports in both Plex and the VPN client. Also, you need to make sure the server you pick actually had Port Fo

VPNs don’t make you anonymous — here’s what they actually do (and don’t)

I'm guessing you are saying no-log VPNs provide anonymity. The real truth is no VPN provides anonymity. They help with privacy. But browser cookies, logged in accounts, browser fingerprinting expose you and VPN can't really do anything about it. Well as a matter of fact we can't be sure there are no
