    Looking into getting a VPN, any recommendations? Definitely willing to pay an annual/monthly fee for a good one.

    I think @theg mentioned some to me once but I can't remember the names.

    Thanks yall.

    What's your reason for getting a VPN? If you're looking for privacy, get ovpn.se with the multihop add-on.

    I used Tunnel Bear, it's a pretty good one that lets you connect with other IP addresses in other countries, only problem is that it has this GB percentage that when it's gone you'll have to pay for it

    PIA is the one i use but it's pissings me off lately because it randomly stops working for 30 second chunks out of nowhere and it'll just drop my internet all together for a few seconds

    Maybe its something im doing wrong or whatever but I'll be randomly browsing sites and just see my connection die and all the sites stop responding, then I get a disconnection message and everything's dead until I either disconnect manually then reconnect or if I just disconnect and use my default legit wifi connection. It's a minor annoyance at worst but it does get on my nerves.

    Maybe its cause im in canada tho idk.
    It's weird because it works with netflix somehow despite them having r-----ed good VPN detection. Ive had other paid VPNs that netflix detects but certain PIA servers don't show up as VPNs for netflix so its worth it for me even with the annoyance

    Heh, I've noticed it does work with netflix and stuff. I'm Canadian too. It may be your service provider. Who are you with?
