SoylentNews is people

from the all-your-VPN-are-belong-to-us dept.

Hello fellow Soylentils. Colour me a nice Soylent Green Canadian who up until recently has only worried somewhat about security. I use linux (mostly Ubuntu) and in the past I have had time to work at config files and do google searches to solve my problems. Today i have far less time to do these things. My question is: can anyone (practically) hand me a good, easy, linux-friendly, and hopefully cheap VPN solution? Extra kudos to those with free options.

Canada seems to be heading in the direction of the United States and I am beginning to worry that my internet is being taken from me. Can anyone come up with a solution to keep my internetting private and my downloads from being pried into? (I've heard VPN is the way to go, but searching for solutions leaves me wondering if I'm getting scammed in the process.)

Thanks in advance for the help.

    I'd suggest mullvad.net, and you can even pay for it with bitcoin so they don't even have records of who you are.
