    Hey guys, so I've been thinking about this whole double VPN or multi-hop thing, right? Like, is it just total overkill for most peeps or does it actually make a real difference? I mean, I get the privacy boost but does it really slow down your speed a lot? cuz I've tested some VPNs with...

    Warning about VPN providers for Raspberry Pi setup

    Hey everyone, so I've been messing around with OpenVPN on my Raspberry Pi, trying to get a kinda DIY VPN going. Thought it would be a cheap way to boost privacy and do some torrenting without risking my main setup. I tried a few providers that say they support OpenVPN and are good for...

    man man I gotta vent a bit here. Been testing VPNs like crazy lately and honestly im getting so frustrated. Everyone talks about speeds but nobody shows real results that matter.

    Ghosted by affiliate managers, am I doing it wrong?

    so I been running some offers, reached out to a few AMs, and honestly, most of them just vanish after a couple of messages. Like, you get the info, maybe a promo, then nada.

    Proxies for social media - total waste of money lately

    man, just had a bad run with some proxies for automating social media stuff. Bought a bunch of residentials, paid like 3 bucks each, thinking they'd be gold for scraping and automating, but wow, got blocked like crazy. Ran a campaign for 2 days and lost almost 200 bucks cause the accounts got...

    Mullvad the privacy-first VPN nobody talks about

    honestly using mullvad for a bit now and honestly it's kinda underrated. they're all about privacy and keeping it simple - no logs, solid encryption, taking crypto is a plus too. setup is stupid easy just get a number and you're good no email or anything. but i think ppl sleep on it cause it...

    VPN for gaming - does it really cut ping or just myths?

    Back in the day, like 5-6 years ago, I remember plugging in VPNs just to get around geo restrictions or improve privacy but not really thinking about ping or lag. Now, after testing a bunch of VPNs for gaming, I gotta say, the numbers are kinda wild. I did some speed tests on a few popular ones...
