Gaming POLL: Do you use a vpn?

[NaopaK]

Only in workplace

 

[Hugrenlo]

Yeah, only when I work, but it slows down my PC. I use Proton...

 

[sonyabyrd]

I use Proton sometimes, but most of time I don't use anything.

 

[TheCasualties]

Only use the VPN when doing space pirate things. Mullvad kicks ass.

 

[JacksonSally]

I use a VPN only for some sites that are banned in my country for some reason(

 

[Viri]

I used to, because my ISP and Youtube were having a dispute, and I had dial-up speed when watching Youtube at night. I'd have to use a VPN to get faster Youtube. But that solved it self, and I found that VPNs slow down my internet too much. I might subscribe for one in the future.

I mostly use vpn to access streaming apps in other countries, like bbc iplayer or login to Netflix USA because they have different content.

 

[Blauhasenpopo]

Yes it does, No logging, blocks isp throttling, prevents location information and it protects online hacking. I use a free VPN called ProtonVPN for my pc and Thunder VPN for my phone

HI

Are you still using this VPN....and are you satisfied withn it?

 

[sombrerosonic]

If i dont use a VPN, How do i pirate my shows like Family guy. Im not giving Disney a single buck for being a trash company.

 

[SaberLilly]

I don't use a VPN, as i don't do anything that requires the use of one.

I currently now use a paid plan of Windscribe VPN, works very well

I just stopped recently, It's pretty good and it offers a lot for a free VPN, and is definitely worth it if you don't want to break the bank, so I'd suggest getting it, the speed is medium and in general works decently

Thx for your reply

Personally I have a VPN mainly because I have a big name ISP in Canada that tracks when you pirate shit (in terms of torrenting) here at least, aren't invested in private trackers/usenet anyways for now.

My VPN vendor is expressvpn as of writing although I hear mullvad looks good with it's port forwarding features.

Mullvad is the best vpn but a but pricy compared to Windscribe (pro) (which i use now). I might switch to Mullvad later on

Yeah that's what I hear from the communities I follow on Reddit as well.

I'd have to do some more research for myself honestly but what I'm looking for is better seeding capabilites and especially faster downloading speeds.

 

[Catastrophic]

I don't use a VPN. I'm Icelandic and ISPs here don't give two shits if you torrent stuff.

Mullvad has the best security but the speed definitely isn't pristine

You could see some of it from here

Wish other countries wouldn't look into your data

 

[Joe88]

I use PIA (Private Internet Access)
It is on the cheaper side, 3 years for $79, no increase after or changes like some other ones, I noticed quite a few had a 2 or 3 year deal for X amount, then after that period you get charged that same X amount per year instead of the same multi year deal

My only complaint is the DNS they use is a bit jank, has issues with google image search (only loads first 5 rows then stops, cannot preview images) , and gdrive (doesnt load)

other than that I max out my connection so im fine

 

[chrisrlink]

I see your point, however I feel you get some cool extra features with a paid VPN, but you still have to pay

I recommend mullvad downloaded torrents on that and yet have to been wacked it only cost 5 euro or $5.50 usd a month i wonder if it's safe to use their paypal option despite you having a annon account ID for the VPN?
