Yeah, the slowdown is a bummer, but it's still fast enough to torrent the Daily Show on weeknights ;-). And there are lots of VPN providers, so if one starts spying on me, it's easy to switch to another. For internet access where I live, I'm stuck with Comcast, Google at the Starbucks, or carrier pigeons.
- revelation 12y agoInstead of using a VPN provider, I can recommend using a dedicated server. You can use a VM from DigitalOcean or others if you prefer those, I personally use an Atom from OVH for just 4Eur/month, which in some cases is outright cheaper than a VPN, too. Plus of course you get the plenty of disk space and 24h computing a server gives you. Great learning tool, too.
- corv 12y agoDedicated servers are great but having a fixed IP address is not going to help against tracking unfortunately. I can also recommend OVH/Kimsufi and Hetzner.
