esp nordvpn

oi

i've always thought about a vpn

damn and that's the popular one

kek

we should definitely all have one considering how many people drop questionably legal shit in here lol

how the fuck is it able to manage the "tunnel" or whatever - am i not getting my internet access via my ISP?

i know basic networking but i've never actually looked up how VPNs work

it's hard to explain without getting to technical

get technical, i can take it, i had to configure cisco routers by cli

like i'd have to explain how TCP/IP works

ah

so TCP packets dont get decrypted till they get to their destination and usually it decrypts at a stop like ur ISP n moves on

oh is it literally just using my internet as a single hop and the rest is in their hands?

yes basically

aren't the legally obligated/technologically inferior to a LEO?

that probably depends on the country

if we're talkin legal obligation

idk about technologically

with the one you recommended, is it stateside or some caribbean haven thing

ive never made a VPN before so im unsure

panema

oh you mean with origin

pretty sure both are USA based

but as far as I know neither keep logs

i'm still skeptical but i'll consider it in the near future

you can always make your own vpn service through yourself

also if you dont trust vpns i would also advise leaving your discord acct because theyre much less obligated to keep your privacy

it's not that i don't trust them, it's just that the effort would be wasted on the stuff i do on the internet

most of the knowledge i have is from OSINT or physical books

i don't have a survivor library or something that i need to access in a remote place

i got a shitload of computer pdfs too

yeah but even all of the legally dubious ones are common sense for anyone with the trade experience to do them

just get certs

i mean like machining

pirate CCNA books

oh machining?

i got tons o books on that too

but yea hands on is the way to go there

CCNA shit was so annoying

yeah fuck the CCNA
