Firefox 149 will offer a free built-in VPN, split views, tab notes and optional AI windows

Depends on the context. For example most open sourced software is free because it helps with the development of the code or because making it free is to the benefit of everyone involved (Ex. the Linux kernel) Or using the 2 trustworthy (in my opinion) "free" VPN's that I know of (Windscribe and Prot

VPN firm says it didn’t know customers had lifetime subscriptions, cancels them

Yeah I'm in a similar situation with another VPN. Bought a lifetime subscription back in 2016/2017 that they were offering for ~$60 since they were a new startup, but only years later did they subtly update the account page to say "expires in 2027." Still a good deal compared to pretty much any othe

Microslop in their infinite wisdom.

Interesting that privacy stuff is under attack. The US government wants us to think that a VPN can strip away our rights. Mightily convenient. I’d still trust Windscribe with my data even if it were ‘risky’ in some way to do so.

Well, here it is, folks...

Here is something for you all. As you know you can use VPN to bypass this (How long that will last is another matter) But there will be quite a fair few on here not able to afford VPN.

Windscribe joins Signal in threatening Canada exit over controversial surveillance bill

Good on you Windscribe! I have nothing to fear from my government at the moment about any of my online activities, but I have concerns that it may be different in the future. I do not like the increasing support worldwide for political parties that are leaning toward fascism.

Windscribe joins Signal in threatening Canada exit over controversial surveillance bill

Oh shoot. Windscribe is what i use, along with Proton ( free locations ) as a backup. IF windscribe pulls out, guess i will become a Proton paid customer even though it costs more 😉

which vpn is trustworthy from an actual security standpoint not just marketing

In order of preference. Mullvad Proton Windscribe. All 3 have valid audits. All have good security and plenty of features. Windscribe has all the bells and whistles, including some that you probably don't need. Mullvad does exactly what it says it does, and does it day in, day out. Proton is kinda b
