Sex Lies and VPN Providers

VPN Providers will make up anything to sell you their Snake Oil.

Here is one that really annoyed me!

It is however easier to block and might not work if your ISP or government blocks the protocol. In that case you need to use OpenVPN, which is impossible to detect or block

With the right tools, Openvpn protocol is as easy to block as any other :evil:

It is a VPN Provider review and posted to the correct forum .. sure the OP does not have a poll to vote on but this is more "on topic" than half of the other posts here.

The key phrase here is "With the right tools."

This may be one of the most dangerous VPN services out there. Read our Hola VPN review now to redeem your privacy and freedom – by avoiding this VPN at all costs!

Let us introduce you to the virtual manifestation of parasitism. It’ll be very difficult to come up with anything positive due to the very nature of this dodgy service. But, as always, we’ll do our best to be impartial and objective.
