Topic: Best VPN's using Bitcoin? - page 7. (Read 41130 times)
I am looking for a good one also. Are there any free vpns? I need a good free one.
I already heard about what hidemyass did there, really bad vpn.
Hidemyass LOL, The Internet never forgets
does anyone know if the same Operators have other VPN Services to stay away from ?

We use http://hidemyass.com/, but may switch to a different VPN soon. We are also looking for recommendations.
DONT USE HIDEMYASS
Read this: http://www.cbronline.com/news/security/second-lulzsec-hacker-faces-arrest-following-hidemyass-disclosure-report-270911
For ANY VPN provider or any Internet Security or Web Hosting avoid USA / CANADA / UK / AUSTRALIA / GERMANY / RUSSIA / CHINA
This was clear way before Snowden leak but now it is a fact.
Russia likes to play politics but spys on every one just like any one else dont be fooled.
I recommend using multiple vpn providers combined and would recommend the following:
BolehVPN
Mullvad
Ideally you want VPN provider to accept Bitcoin and not require email address. Sign up through TOR Browser (very hard to pin those logs to you later)
Use http://yourtempmail.com/ Temp Mail over TOR if you must provide an email
Also dont go for cheapest vpn with most features...
Govt Agencies setup and finance project like such to gather intel, so if it seem to good to be true it is.
Use TOR if you gonna do something sketchy and at very least boot in to Trails OS from USB

Please list all vpn clients with sock5 abilities.
Well, I use NetworkManager-openvpn to manage my OpenVPN connections and it supports it.
I guess any decent client will do...
Hey all,
With the recent NSA antics, I'm finally convinced myself to get a VPN before it's too late.
I've looked at a couple of VPN's like PIA (the one sponsoring the forums) and AirVPN, but I'm still undecided. Is there any suggestions you guys can give me here?
Requirements:
- Payable with Bitcoins
- FAST speeds, low pings
- Reliable
- No logging
- Multidevices possible, e.g.: I want to connect my phone and laptop at once.
Hopefully:
- Many servers to choose from
- Asian servers (Singapore/Hong Kong?)
- Price isn't too crazy (But I'm prepared to pay an upwards of $60+ a year if you can convince me it's worth it)
Thanks guys!

I bet Private Internet Access would throw a free vpn.

No logging.
The thing about logging is that it's not possible for a VPN provider to prove they don't keep logs, nor can they prove they will never start keeping logs in the future if ordered by a court.Never depend on a third party not keeping logs. Assume they are logging everything and if that's a problem then protect yourself via other means (connect to the VPN service through Tor, etc).
That's true. US does not have data retention laws but gov can get logs whenever they want.
So basically i don't trust US and European countries.
Here is a list of countries that doesn't have data retention laws.
Argentina - No data retention law
Brazil - No data retention law
Bulgaria - Data retention law not applicable to VPN providers
Cyprus - Data retention law declared unconstitutional (?)
Czech Republic - No data retention law (declared unconstitutional)
Hong Kong - No data retention law (?)
Iceland - No data retention period specified (?); good privacy laws
Japan - No data retention law
Luxemburg - Data retention law not applicable to VPN providers
Netherlands - Data retention law not applicable to VPN providers
Panama - No data retention law
Romania - Data retention law declared unconstitutional
Serbia - Data retention law not applicable to VPN providers (?)
Sweden - Data retention law going into effect in May 2012, but (presumably) not applicable to VPNs
Taiwan - No data retention law (?) + seemingly good privacy laws
Ukraine - No data retention law
Any example speeds and ping? 
I'm leaning towards AirVPN currently especially considering their status page here: https://airvpn.org/status/
Random check Speedtest.net just gave me 144 ms ping, 5.7 Mbps down / 0.75 Mbps up. Actual speeds are somewhat higher because I was using the connection for other things at the same time. I'm leaning towards AirVPN currently especially considering their status page here: https://airvpn.org/status/66 ms, 23.3/4.0 Mbps

I used private internet access and I'm a little worried no one has mentioned them. Any experience with them?
Accepts bitcoin. Fast. Multiple access points across the world. No logging.

I've read good reviews about this one, I went with torguard because it was the cheapest I could find.

I'm leaning towards AirVPN currently especially considering their status page here: https://airvpn.org/status/As far as your PRISM question goes, you can configure OpenVPN to use a SOCKS proxy, which means you can connect to AirVPN via Tor if you want and that is a configuration they support. It does come at a performance cost though.
Ah, thanks for the clarification. Is the speed for torguard good? What's the countries where they have servers?
You have to try some servers to find the best speed for you, one server on port 80 might be shitty but if you try that same server at port 443 it might be great.
When downloading torrents I can get up to 4 mb/s, don't remember if got higher than this...
They have PPTP, L2TP and OpenVPN, I only use OpenVPN.
OpenVPN servers at: Canada, Netherlands, New Zealand, Romania, Russia, Iceland, India, Switzerland, USA and UK, you cannot use torrents in the USA servers.
I use AIrVPN for *all of my home Internet traffic and have been happy with speeds and latencies so far. They don't have an automatic way to set up multiple device access, but apparently if you contact them they'll set you up manually with a plan.
* except for encrypted and anonymized traffic like Tor, I2P, and Freenet. There's no point routing those through the VPN.

They are specialize in protecting people who shares files over the Internet, it is legal in my country, but it is a crime in many countries arround the world, if they don't protect their users identity, they are not gonna make it in this business.
