btw @Timcast I love how your using your need for revinue to also make people aware of vpns. They are needed now more then ever in this growingly 1984 era
Also a huge fan, and im actually far right wing XD
🤔 VPNs are actually not that useful
basically useless if you are using a VPN for the internet unless you were trying to bypass geo-lock
They are a step in the right direction
wdym?
I mean that its a step in the direction to remove restrictions that its a method of gaining back a messure of freedom
and in this day and age even a step in the right direction feels like a leap
it doesn't remove any restrictions unless you are in a country that actually censors
like china
well alot of european nations censor these days as well as alot of the regional blocking on sites like youtube
YT's geo blocking still works if you are using a VPN iirc
same with amazon
I do conceed that its not an amazing step forward lol
I just think that awareness of options is good =p
it's not really a step forward though, it just mitigates full censorship
a step forward would be protocols and technologies that prevent both censorship and throttling
Which in this climate of increasing censorship is a step forward
Oh I whole heartedly agree
the US doesn't fully censor anything besides pedophiles and drug dealers
Websites are begining to censor
not really
deciding what can and can not be said or seen
if you are referring to the daily stormer, they actually violated the ToS of their DNS provider
lol no im not im just noticing the trends
ok but
a VPN doesn't stop websites from censoring
I never said it would
but then how is that a step forward
Having options made aware means people can consider things in a broader sense
Im not talking about fixing issues here im just saying that alot of tools are out there and people dont know about them
Any awareness of any tool is a step forward for people
and if it helps aleviate the concerns of others hurray
but in most cases VPNs don't actually help you, especially for websites with ads since they use many forms of browser identification
Well I wouldnt know about all that
good paper
ill give it a read ^^
this is smart
