    Great.

    More different identities for the same old users that think we don't know who they are.

    It gets boring here.

    Ah yes, sorry if I didn't make your life any easier there Aerianne!

    But I hate the way my government is becoming Big Brother from 1984 when it comes to our online digital privacy.

    It's not that it makes my life difficult.

    It's that it gets boring as hell around here with the same people attempting to play different characters.

    I don't understand how VPNs prevent governments from snooping on you. Certainly in the UK now following Theresa ****'s snoopers charter the IPs must record all the sites you visit and provide the police with that information without a court order. They can only look at the websites you are visiting though and the frequency, but not the content you are looking at or posting. That said, wouldn't be too difficult to work out.

    Surely though if the IPs are recording the address of sites visited through VPNs the address of the site you are visiting will be in there somewhere and the only benefit of a VPN is that the site itself wont be able to see your IP address? Well, unless they are knowledgeable at these things, I think it's still possible to trace your IP address.

    I'm not sure when the snoopers charter comes in to force to be honest, it might already be in place. And lots of organisations have the right to look at what you are looking at on the internet, the police, the DWP, not sure who else but there are a fair few it's a disgraceful invasion of privacy #toryscum

    All the world’s a stage,
    And all the men and women merely players;
    They have their exits and their entrances,
    And one man in his time plays many parts,
    His acts being seven ages. At first, the infant,
    Mewling and puking in the nurse’s arms.
    Then the whining schoolboy, with his satchel
    And shining morning face, creeping like snail
    Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,
    Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad
    Made to his mistress’ eyebrow. Then a soldier,
    Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard,
    Jealous in honor, sudden and quick in quarrel,
    Seeking the bubble reputation
    Even in the cannon’s mouth. And then the justice,
    In fair round belly with good capon lined,
    With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,
    Full of wise saws and modern instances;
    And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts
    Into the lean and slippered pantaloon,
    With spectacles on nose and pouch on side;
    His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide
    For his shrunk shank, and his big manly voice,
    Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
    And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
    That ends this strange eventful history,
    Is second childishness and mere oblivion,
    Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.



    As You Like It, Act II, Scene VII [All the world’s a stage]
    William Shakespeare, 1564 - 1616

    Yes... All The World's A Stage and thespians need remember that playing two roles in the same thread will mean curtains for them.

    Well here's a complicated answer, but basically it's a precautionary measure, rather than a complete solution:

    I wouldn't imagine using a VPN service to protect your banking details was a very wise thing to do...

    I use the one with the cute playboy bunny look-a-like. Works well. Slows your speed down a bit but.

    I use Veepn. It is very fast and safe. I use it because I have a big family and we travel all the time. For example, we went to China last year. There we were all able to use VPN from one account. That's cool!
