@gitpush MullVad! They don't require ANY personal information and you can even send them an envelope with cash :)
-
@linuxxx great, will check it out thanks man 😀
-
@linuxxx from your last few rants I notice some Atychiphobia (fear of failure, and yes I ducked ((not googled)) that 🙃) I don't know if you actually have it and/or still have it, but if so. You don't have to think so negatively about yourself, I know you are a good programmer (and person) the only thing that you miss is experience, but that's why your a junior 😉 we're allowed to make the obvious mistakes, we're even expected to make some really stupid mistakes.
-
@incognito Oh yeah I've got that big time! Still gotta learn how to beat that one :)
-
@incognito Daarnaast, mogguh :P
-
@linuxxx. Let me guess... You never went to the principal's office.
I had my own chair :P -
@Mobius True haha but in my defense, we don't really have that over here 😅
-
@linuxxx ok, that's new for me. Anyways... yeah... when it comes to your job it's not fun. Big relief.
-
@linuxxx also MullVad, I'm currently looking into it and holy sh*t they allow port forwarding? 😯 and it does not block p2p? I may have found a better vpn for my whole server
-
@gitpush I've been using private internet access (yes that's its name) reliably for over a year now. They come highly recommended, are one of the more inexpensive providers, and has good customer support and doesn't retain logs.
-
@Koolstr Looks promising, though I forgot to ask, does it have big effect on connection speed? I have a 2Mbit line, and usually avoid VPNs cuz they reduce my speed down to 512Kbps :S
-
@Koolstr me too! It really is inexpensive, works well and has a ton of dedicated servers all over the world so you can choose your location. Don't know about the logs stuff, they say they don't keep any, but so does tunnelbear...
-
@Koolstr i used to use them! Thing is that they operate on US soil meaning of they get a secret court order for tracking reasons, they HAVE to comply.
-
What's the deal with all these CTOs? Who the fuck is appointing them? Are you sure you and @BM32 don't work for the same company?
-
@linuxxx that may be true but they don't retain any logs so they end up with no information to hand over. This happened before and that was the result - nothing. So no worries.
What do you use now instead then? -
@gitpush valid question, can't believe I forgot to mention that. There is minimal effect on the connection speed. In some cases, it even improves my connection speed.
-
@Koolstr this is cool, I'll sure check it out, hoping it doesn't have big effect on my connection speed
-
@newfap Welcome to this awesome place!

This is...
Internship number two.
*walks downstairs to get a coffee*
*CTO (my guider) walks in*
CTO: (dead serious face) "linuxxx (not using my first name :P), come with me please"
*walks along to his office, starting to get reallly fucking nervous*
*CTO and me walk into his office, he sits down and looks at me very serious*
*I'm slightly shaking, nervous, sweating*
CTO: "So."
*oh yes here it is its gonna come I did something wrong fuck fml 😫😥😨😩*
CTO: "So you know quite some stiff around security/privacy. Could you tell me some stuff about why I'd want to use VPN and recommend me some good providers? 😀"
😅
*nearly falls onto the ground from relief*
I explained him some stuff and sent him a list of good providers 😀
rant
