When it comes to Likee’s official privacy statement, language is purposefully vague. This means you don’t know what information the company collects and where it ends up. In general, Likee collects: Profile information (gender, place of residence, social media information, and more) User-generated content (your comments, posts, photos, and videos) Biometric data (facial recognition) Social network contacts The user’s location Network activity (browser history, search history) Device information (operating system, browser type, IP address, apps, language settings, and more)...

Why do we seek this comfort? Because we know that some of the merchants we buy from are not “businesses of their word,” so to speak. We are aware that just because someone says you are entitled to your money back if you are not satisfied, that they will honor this promise. It’s sad, but true, and this is no different for VPN providers. Love them as much as we may - and we do here at VPNMentor - our experience is that not all of our privacy-vending friends are as honest as we’d like to see them be....

The historic amounts of stolen cryptocurrency were equivalent to around $70 million in 2016. Over time, BTC value has skyrocketed and hackers have strategically shifted copious amounts to anonymous wallets. The process of shifting culminated in a record single transfer of around $380 million worth of Bitcoin, tracked last week by various blockchain tracking organizations. DOJ Seized $3.6 Billion in BTC and Arrested Two Amid a DOJ cybersecurity initiative to crack down on cryptocurrency cybercrime, law enforcement arrested two unassuming, eccentric individuals, tied to the high-profile 2016 Bitfinex hack....

The move is happening a lot sooner than expected and has been formally announced today via the UK government’s Department for Digital, Culture, Media, and Sport.

The government documents also state that this is an issue of national security. It is also stated that the Chinese state will be carrying out cyber-attacks towards the United Kingdom....

When it comes to watching the NHL, there are always some difficulties due to the broadcasters putting restrictions on sports streaming services (applying regional blocks). This means that you can be affected by this in multiple ways e.g. if you live or find yourself outside of the U.S. or Canada, and not only that but you can be subject to location-based viewing blockage even if you are a paying subscriber of NHL....

Nonetheless, the company is taking the alleged leak “very seriously” and is looking into it, the spokesperson said. Cybernews first reported the data leak, saying the seller posted an ad for a WhatsApp database on November 16. The database allegedly contains the phone numbers of 487 million users from 84 countries. This includes the numbers of 32 million WhatsApp users from the U.S., 45 million users from Egypt, 35 million users from Italy, and 20 million users from France, among others....

I tested over 40 free VPNs for Fortnite and many had a negative impact on my gaming. Poor compatibility, slow speeds, and stingy data limits had me throwing my controller at the wall. Even the best free VPNs come with limitations. They may impose restrictions on your bandwidth or data and only have a few servers available. They could even put your online safety at risk. A reliable VPN like ExpressVPN is better for gaming....

Lagging can be in the form of an irritating glitch now and then, that’s inconvenient but not detrimental. It can also cause a frozen screen that slows down or stops the frame rate enough that you lose major points or even full matches! The severity of these glitches depends on several factors, such as where you live, your ISP, or how fast your connection is. Some gamers cannot make any progress within the game, despite living in large capital cities with good connections....

In my experience, VPNs tend to be the best way around this problem. With a good VPN, you can get an IP address in any country you want, and fool YouTube that you’re trying to access its content from an unrestricted location. The emphasis here is on “good VPN”, however, as many VPNs don’t have servers in that many countries. And even when they do, most VPNs have annoyingly slow server speeds, which drags down the quality of your YouTube videos to 240p....

Unfortunately, Motor Trend makes it difficult to keep up with your favorite auto shows and events outside of the US. You can use a VPN, but the problem is that not all VPNs are able to bypass the geoblocks. And out of the ones that can, only a handful are fast enough for uninterrupted streaming. I tested each of the leading VPNs currently available to see which are the meanest, loudest, most oily and intimidating… just kidding....

However, VPNs aren’t one-size-fits-all, and the features that are important to you might not be the same ones that appeal to someone else. At vpnMentor, we believe that the best possible VPN is one that perfectly fits your needs, regardless of what user and expert reviews might say. Furthermore, in spite of its positives, HMA does have shortcomings, especially if total privacy is your number one reason for using a VPN....

I spent several weeks testing 40+ free VPNs for Australia, and found that many of them aren’t safe to use — at all. Some leak or sell your identifiable information, while others lack key security features, so you can’t depend on them to protect your data from hackers or prying eyes. Even if you’re just looking to access more streaming services at home, you’ll have to deal with annoying caps and limitations....

My team and I tested 75+ VPNs to find the best options for Ukraine. All of my shortlisted VPNs have robust security features to maintain your online privacy, including no-logs policies, top encryption, and a kill switch. Additionally, these VPNs have high-speed global servers capable of unblocking sites worldwide. ExpressVPN is my top choice. It uses several advanced security features to protect your data. Plus, incredible speeds and an expansive global network (including servers in Ukraine) are great for uninterrupted streaming of local and international content....

For this reason, I compiled a helpful list of VPNs that worked the best for watching Australian TV during testing.
