VPNs - Caught in Lying!?!
airdoggoplus and one other reacted to Staff for a post in a topic
@arteryshelby We do not log and/or inspect our customers' traffic. Since 2010 you can't produce any single case, and not even the slightest clue, in which the identity of an AirVPN customer has been disclosed through traffic log and/or inspection and/or any other invasive method. It means a lot, given that various younger VPN services have been caught lying (ascertained court cases) and that AirVPN is now the oldest still active VPN service, with the exception of a minor service which anyway changed ownership twice in the last 12 years. By the way we have never asked our customers to blindly believe in our words. We do not block Tor and we even integrate its usage in our software, so you can be even safer if you can't afford to trust us OR some datacenter. For example you can use Tor over OpenVPN, to hide Tor usage to your country and ISP, and at the same time hide your traffic real origin, destination, protocol etc. to us and the datacenter the server is connected into. Last but not least, we invest a lo of money in Tor infrastructure and in 2017, 2018 and 2019 more than 2.5% of global world Tor network traffic transited on Tor exit-nodes paid by AirVPN. It is an important achievement we're proud of, and it hints to good faith. Kind regards -

[COMPLETED] WireGuard beta testing available

@Air4141841 Hello! That's correct, FQDN records pertaining to the "best" server of a certain area (country or continent or planet) are updated every 5 minutes to make the name resolve into the "best" server entry IP address in that area. "Best" server is computed by a simple formula which takes into account server load (connected clients), available bandwidth, ISP reliability and round trip time between the server itself and all (or many) other VPN servers in AirVPN. @kbps IPv4 private subnets are inside three possible ranges: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network#Private_IPv4_addresses You can find the one your devices are in by checking the router settings, for example, or the physical interface settings of one of your computers Kind regards -

IPLeak showing a non-AirVPN public IP despite connection
Innovathorr reacted to De Facto Pantalones for a post in a topic
I don't know if this would help, but if you're using Windows, try running Eddie with elevated privileges, "connect at startup", "activate network lock at start-up", and "start with system"? Perhaps there is a McAfee setting to "Delay Real-Time Protection" you can change? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -
1 pointHello! Of course, absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, but at least you can't find any proof that any identity of our customers has ever been disclosed, while such cases are notorious for various competitors. While science can't prove that there are no pink donkeys, because scientific inquiry can't bring evidence of absence, the scientific method forces you to bring a proof, specifically at least one pink donkey., to show that they exist. Now, either you bring some proof for your insinuations, or you are just another trolltard. Not at all, or at least "not necessarily",. You can still access our onion web site, or even access our regular web site through Tor, which is a much stronger clue against your fears than any audit can provide because an audit which is paid by the audited can not be trusted. Can you tell us what good the excellent audits performed on ExpressVPN (who hired CIA intelligence agent who worked for UAE government to crack activists and journalists devices) or PIA and CyberGhost (which are owned by an adware and malware specialized Israeli company) brought to customers? This shows your ignorance on how Tor works, shame on you. The power of Tor is mainly due to the fact that you don't need an audit of every single Tor relay and that end-to-end encryption has wiped out Tor malicious exit nodes which could intercept your unencrypted communications and take advantage from them even though the exit-node does not know where they come from. Please get informed before you publish such nonsense. Kind regards

AirVPN vs ProtonVPN.
stupid are cocksure reacted to Staff for a post in a topic
With all due respect for an old time customer like you, comparing AirVPN with ExpressVPN is an insult we can't accept. ExpressVPN has always been perfectly aware that one of its executives was an American intelligence operative who helped UAE human rights hostile government in cracking operations. We do agree with Edward Snowden when he says that you must not use ExpressVPN. Incidentally, ExpressVPN is now part of a big group that, throughout the past decade, was an adware based business with shady privacy practices.

How To Configure For Anonymity
cheezelikesthis reacted to Staff for a post in a topic
Hello! Probably the least difficult solution is using a Virtual Machine. Connect the host to a VPN server over Tor (OpenVPN over Tor). Then run a VM and attach the VM to the host via NAT (very important to achieve your purpose). Connect the VM to a different VPN server. Use your VM only to connect to the final services on the Internet. Traffic from the VM will be tunneled over OpenVPN over Tor over OpenVPN. The final services will not see a Tor exit-node IP address (instead they will see VPN server exit-IP address), while your ISP will not see that you connect to a VPN or that you run OpenVPN, it will see that you're using Tor. Things to consider carefully: if VPN traffic is "problematic" for your ISP or country, probably Tor traffic will be even more "problematic" performance will be hit seriously Kind regards
