VPN

Does anyone use a VPN? I recently got one to get around the new piracy laws in Aus.

Anyone else use one and for what purposes?

I use Buffered, it’s stable and gives a good range of countries to choose from.  Handy for overseas shopping.

Hey mate, Which VPN are you using? I personally haven’t got myself one yet! and I do a lot of torrenting, and I probably should have some protection! “Always use protection right?”  tongue wink

At a minimum, this is necessary when traveling to ensure both your own Internet security and the best quality of Internet connection in some cases. In addition, very often in different countries you will not have access to the necessary resources - then free fast vpns will also help a lot.
