Katzenfreund Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 VPN services are used mainly by pirates to avoid detection. But by their nature, pirates are averse to paying for anything. Hence we are seeking the best free VPN. Now, we all know that, as provision of the service costs money, the provider has to make money somehow, and consequently no free VPN is perfect. Furthermore, what is best depends on what you want it for. So to facilitate the choice, we specify the purpose of getting torrents. Criteria would be: speed, choice of locations, volume of data, security from detection, absence of monitoring, absence of adware and ease of use. Special free offers are acceptable, provided they are for a reasonable period of, say, at least 3 months. But cheap services don’t qualify, as they are not free.

steven36 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 There is no such thing as a good free VPN .. We use to have some giveaways to a OK VPN at this site . But not anymore so for the last few years I been buying my VPN. Around Christmas I found a 1 year giveaway for Avira Phantom VPN because this around the time mine expires when there running Christmas promos and it was so slow that i bought a good VPN again. Even most giveaways are very limited and Avira is to slow for downloading and streaming and none ever work for Linux . When you buy a vpn they most always give you the stuff to use on Linux . Betternet is the same way as Proton if you use the free version they cripple you're speed down too slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good tip for surfing anonymously and bypassing censorship for free. But as far as I know, you cannot use Google Chrome to download torrents. This was a requirement in the OP.

mona Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I'm using Tunnel Bear on Android tablet. It suites my rather limited needs. It offers good speeds, is very reliable as to the choice of the country (very many are not), and doesn't log any private data. But it has disadvantages too: - small free limit of transferred data, and .... - no P2P traffic. So it's definitelly NOT what you are looking for @Katzenfreund. For those who might be interested - here is a Tunnel Bear review https://www.pcmag.com/review/346257/tunnelbear-vpn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EternalPurple Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Ain't no thing as the 'best free VPN'. If you want to use a crappy slow service which collects your info and sells it then yeah, sure, use free ones (gotta make business somehow). If you want not very expensive more quality ones check these out: https://nordvpn.com/ https://goosevpn.com/ https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/ https://surfshark.com/ https://vpn.ac/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tao Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Avira Phantom VPN (free) is good. For heavy bandwidth users it may not be sufficient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
