Vpn

I’ve used ‘Hide My Ass’ VPN for years now simply because I enjoy internet content that is limited to specific geographic locations, in particular TV shows from various different European countries.  Not free but inexpensive and it doesn’t impact on streaming reliability.  The interface is user friendly and choice of locations extensive.

i have no commercial link with HMA, just a satisfied customer.

I agree. Hma is awesome

 
I realize this is an old post but wanted to add to it. I was really shocked to see a bunch of people say no, don't need it etc....

Now (2021) is as good a time as any to have a VPN regardless of whether you're doing something "wrong" or just an average Joe playing around online.  Not only are you hiding your IP from others but you're protecting yourself from your ISP snooping on you. Some are known to,  mine doesn't though. You get an encrypted connection between you and your destination site which is key if you're doing any type of online shopping.  The other benefits are Geographical. You can access things in other countries that you wouldn't normally be able to. A good example would be Netflix. I changed my location from the US to Germany to be able to watch a show that wasn't available here. This is a HUGE benefit for people outside of the US to access our content. 

I don't recommend using the free VPN services.  A paid subscription is short money because it's so competitive now. I'd  recommend PureVPN, Express VPN or NORD VPN. Each of these have many servers across countless countries,  offer great connection speeds, keep no logs of user info and are cheap. Some deals are close to $40 for a year subscription others can be up to $10/ month. Regardless of cost it's well worth it. I picked up a 5 year plan on some deal for less than a hundred bucks.

Hopefully this will help someone. Better to be anonymous online nowadays

  1. xenxra @ xenxra: yeah but isn't the password restricted to sponsors anyway? why not just make that section private like the other ones? or is "brand new members" inclusive of sponsored accounts that are newly registered?
  2. Gracie5 @ Gracie5: The password isn’t given automatically, at least by me. I don’t give it to brand new members.
  3. xenxra @ xenxra: dm admin for password. i still don't really understand the purpose of the password section if it's just given out freely to anyone who is a sponsor.
  4. N @ Nebulon Kitty: I've recently donated to become an opal member, and posted in the thread after the donation. How do I go about actually getting the password to the members area and my Opal status.

  11. A @ Aarfgh: correct, but it's nothing to write home about unfortunately
  12. Steviejay88 @ Steviejay88: @otbotf I believe you need to get it from an admin
  13. O @ otbotf: how do i find the password to the locked pages?
  14. H @ hotdog45: @Mokachin0 thank you. Truly those words are not enough, but it's all I have at the moment. You are an amazing person.
  15. M @ Mokachin0: Search vet bills if your a member who needs help with vet care or basic staples for your pet, admins will verify I’m extending a real offer
  16. xenxra @ xenxra: @Steviejay88 if there's one major takeaway i've gained from all the indictments against onion farmers it's that you should never rely on server-side encryption for these kinds of things. please refer to hansa as a case example.
  17. A @ Aarfgh: @Steviejay88 absolutely my man, good question
  18. Steviejay88 @ Steviejay88: @Aarfgh II just want everyone to stay safe
  19. Steviejay88 @ Steviejay88: @Aarfgh yea I don’t want to start anything
  20. A @ Aarfgh: @Steviejay88 so as not to stir any pots, I'm not an expert on this particular forum software however I know natively it doesn't. that doesn't mean a plug-in wasn't used of some sort, if it's even possible. check out the dev console in your browser and poke around now you've got me curious
