Anyone like to recommend a browser-extension-based VPN tool that's a bit more respectful than Hola and is relatively cheap?
(Of course I run my own VPN server using OpenVPN, but Hola is really convenient when I'm only trying to get an American IP to avoid Australian geoblocking - it's also easy for non-technical friends to use.)
- joelkesler 11y agoTunnelbear recently released a chrome plugin for their VPN service. I hear good things about it. (I personally use the application on my Mac)
- DonGateley 11y agoTunnlebear makes no claims relative to logging its users activities or about its responsiveness to requests for them. Beware.
- svintus 11y agoWe have a pretty clear and accessible privacy policy that addresses these issues in detail https://www.tunnelbear.com/privacy-policy/ https://www.tunnelbear.com/privacy-policy/ TL;DR: no logging
- DonGateley 11y agoThanks for the correction. It's improved considerably from when I was considering it.
- ultramancool 11y agoThis applies to any VPN service. They'll all fall to the legal demand to log, for a specific user at least, sooner or later. If you want anonymity, a VPN service is not the way to go.
- hiamnew 11y agoJust use Tor Browser, it's "extract and launch".
- ajdlinux 11y agoTor Browser is great, but I'm not going to use it for watching video, which is all I ever use a VPN to do...
