skyfire Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Yes that is one reason I am going for the NordVPN and may consider it as an option for long term VPN needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NordVPN is kind of an iffy one in my opinion because of the hacking incident a few years ago and how they only made it known a year after the incident happened and they weren't fully transparent on the findings and what data the hackers had access to.

skyfire Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 I want to use it for the foreign Netflix shows. Other than that I can't think of any use of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to go shopping on foreign sites so I use it for that as well and I also have bank accounts in a few other countries as well so I need it for that. Everybody's needs are different though.

skyfire Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Yeah in that context I'd say basic VPN is more than enough. I am just not sure for some logger type VPNs though. those are simply not worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Seriously, the only reason why I would ever be open to making use of VPN is if it's the only thing that would allow me to have access to any website I want to use, then I will definitely get it.

Is the $39.99 a monthly subscription or yearly subscription? If it's the former, then it's too expensive for my point of view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 I think that VPN deals over there are lifetime. some are there for 2 o 5 year bundles too if I am not wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the subscription duration for the $39.99 is 3 years plus, then it's totally worth it as long as the VPN doesn't have leaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I think there are no VPN without any form of leaks. they sell our data to govt or the advertisers. that's why i say if I check the USA from singapore, i stil get the ads of singapore in VPN lol.

Seriously, the issue of leaks is why it's very difficult to get a VPN that wouldn't disappoint you. There was a job I got to do with specific locations and the VPN I used messed up the whole thing with leaks upon leaks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
