The other answer if course is that piping all your internet traffic through a single 3rd party has some obvious consequences: surveillance and traffic injection being the obvious ones. If anyone thinks they use TLS extensively; run a Bro packet analyzer off a cheap switch span port for a month on your upstream router and prepare to be surprised.
- fibers 8y agoIs this possible on a ubiquiti switch?
- adricnet 8y agoProbably so, the Security Onion wiki has some recommendations for affordable taps: https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/wiki/Hardware https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/security-onion/w...
- whatthesmack 8y agoYes. For UniFi, in the properties of the switch, go to Ports and click on the edit button for the port that should become the mirror. Then click "+" next to Profile Overrides. Under Operation, select Mirroring. Type the port number that should be mirrored and Save. I did this with a UniFi Switch 8 POE-150W.

- wepple 8y agowhilst I somewhat agree, the original SO question was specifically about free VPN providers. I pay my ISP a significant amount each month, and I expect in return that they’re at least not going to inject extra JavaScript into all my browsing. A free VPN on the other hand? They’ve gotta make money, I’ll be things get shady real fast.
