Re: Free Anonymous bittorrent vpn
@gellman: No, no, no, no! Please do not give this advice! If you use privatize VPN, they execute a man in the middle attack on, at least, all of your HTTPS traffic! Assuming they do the same on any other encrypted traffic, an assumption that I think is fair though I haven't checked it, if you connect to a second VPN through Privatize VPN, they will now have your username and password for that second VPN! If you have used that username and password with any other service, you will need to change it. Also, as most VPN providers do not offer a different username and password for billing, you should assume that privatize now has access to any account information (name, address, credit card info, etc) that you gave your second VPN provider. You must assume that all data you send through the privatize service is, at best, getting sold to advertisers, but more likely, is being used for identity theft and other criminal activity. If you absolutely *must* use privatize, it should be the last VPN in the chain, and you should never, ever, send any login details, OAuth tokens, or anything else even remotely private when you're connected. That means remembering to disable services like Google Drive and Dropbox, close your email, Twitter, and Facebook clients, turn off any instant messengers like Skype, etc, etc, etc, before sending absolutely any traffic through privatize. Even a virtual machine might not help you if, for example, that virtual machine has your Microsoft account on it, and Microsoft phones home for any particular reason, thus sending Privatize the details of your Microsoft account. Yes, they should check certificate validity. However, I am not absolutely sure every service does this, and even if they did, privatize could always start installing certificate authorities in the programs that will accept them, as they ask you to install custom software anyway. Remember: there is no such thing as a free lunch.
