CODYQX4 Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 I use it via my router and it works great. Doesn't seem to drop and I seem to get my full speed out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If yours doesn't you can always use the PIA client but it's much less flexible and I find router level VPN to be more secure and stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xyzdev Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 I was thinking about getting this VPN but since the recent UK privacy laws (i think they operate there) and since they're also US based meh, really don't know anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laws in US for VPNs are actually less awful than the other side of the world. Don't trust any of them to keep you hidden from NSA though, as NSA has probably backdoored all the servers anyway.

You're right. Although there are better ones and worst ones among all of this VPN market and we tend to chose the better, obviously. Anyway, the more we read the more doubts we get so it's like you said, we just can't expect on someone else to protect our privacy, maybe creating our own server (VPS) is a better idea.
