VPN Discussion / Online activities that Hurt your Internet Privacy

« Last post by syncmedia123 on October 25, 2021, 04:20:29 AM »

Passwords on a notepad. Forgetting to lock your computer. Using unknown wi-fi networks & the list goes on and on. We all do these things from time to time. Sometimes we know we shouldn’t take risks online but do anyway.

Selecting Obvious Passwords
We’ve all been warned about this one may times, yet poor password security is one of the top internet offenses. As many studies have shown, people tend to choose weak passwords. Things like 1234, ABCD, birthdays of themselves or loved ones. We all know choosing an obvious password is bad, yet many internet users choose passwords that are guessable at best, and downright obvious at worst. Weak passwords make it too easy for cybercriminals to guess or hack, and subsequently gain access to your personal details and accounts.

Connecting to Public Wi-Fi Without a VPN
The answer to the question “is public wi-fi safe” is “no.” It is generally not safe, and thus absolutely essential to use a VPN every time you connect to an unsecured or public wi-fi network. A VPN encrypts your connection to secure it, so even if it is intercepted nothing is visible. It also prevents the network from seeing what you are doing online and collecting this data on you. We’ve written about the dangers of public wi-fi networks many times before. These networks are often secured poorly or not secured at all, and public wi-fi security is generally poor, making these networks dangerous for internet users who connect. This means being “careless” on public wi-fi encompasses a variety of things.

Always share P2P in complete privacy. OLOW VPN protects your location and allows you to share files privately, preventing others from seeing what you’re downloading and what peer machines you’re downloading from. Using a VPN also protects your privacy and information when connecting to unknown peer machines.

P2P Files
Sharing of digital media or content called peer to peer files. The name comes from the way the content is distributed, over peer-to-peer networks.

When sharing P2P files, the security of your connection is important meaning you want to ensure you’re protected every step of the way.
No Third Parties. OLOW VPN did not involve outside companies or third parties of any kind, meaning your data stay private and doesn’t wind up in someone else’s hands.

VPN Kill Switch. The Kill Switch feature means that if your VPN connection drops, your internet traffic is blocked so you are not accidentally, inadvertently exposed.

VPN Discussion / Best Chance to have Multiple VPN with Multiple Browser Instances at the sametime

« Last post by greenlama on October 12, 2021, 01:39:44 PM »

Hello all,

I am currently working on a small project. For this I need to access a website simultaneously through different browser instances with different IPs at the same time. Proxy are out of question, because they are too unreliable or too expensive (at least the ones I found).

It is possible with paid providers (in my case currently NordVPN - still trial period) to select different countries in the browser extension. This also works in parallel as I need it. But I am limited to the number of countries (about 25). But I would like to be able to select the exact server like in the desktop app (over 5000).

Do any of you know a VPN provider where this is possible? (Ideally without device limitation)

If not, does anyone have experience how else to implement this. My attempts went (unfortunately unsuccessfully) also already in the direction of openVPN and assign a server under Linux only one user, etc..

Thanks a lot!
