Virtual Private Networks against Internet Censorship

Michel Bauwens

14th February 2009

Via the WOICT mailing list:

“Virtual Private Networks have been complicated to set up and difficult to maintain. However, with these two free, public tools, VPN is available to everyone.

Your own private network is located overseas beyond the reach of censors using an encrypted tunnel so that governments and ISPs won’t even be able to see where you’re surfing. Unlike anonymous Internet proxies, using VPN makes streaming video and audio freely available.

Two simple, free VPN applications are HotSpot Shield (Mac and Windows) , AlwaysVPN (Mac, Windows, Linux) and Social VPN (Windows, Linux). Run the installer and they just work with one click every time you get to a blocked website.”
