Title: VPN
Post by haga on Dec 1^st, 2014, 4:08pm

Hi folks, hope all is good with you all, it's coming up to that time of year again where your socks and pants draw get topped up ;) internet is a bit cranky today (cyber Monday) what fun...
I also notice that the top 6 internet suppliers are banning warez sites, my favourite being warez-bb has been blocked by BT for a week now, there are times I can get on so have no idea what all that is about.. I used 3monkey VPN last week as I had a free 2 day coupon, it worked well and I could again access the sites I wanted but after 36 hours it ran out, and to renew it for a month was a crazy price,
any of you lot use a VPN site ? fors and against ? have been told of TOR browser but was warned against using it because it's slow and notorious for scams..
Your thoughts appreciated
Haga

it looks like that bt are even blocking the torrents sites like piratebay aswell.
so i found out from a friend who is with them.. im glad i not :) to be
honest with you i think bt are money grabbing sods. they are always
putting the price up.. have you heard or tried a proxy called ultrasurf?
i have found that this is very good for block web sites

Cheers, I'll check them out although to be honest I haven't had a lot of luck using a proxy,
I'm told that BT is allowing you to access these Warez sites now and again to collect the ip's of people using them, I wouldn't put anything past the money grabbing bastards
