I have never experienced the dark web so I'm trying to access a source so I can view the dark web
Best free vpn ever! it's support any platform and you can just use it without any payment with good speed and no limited bandwidths. good design, very simple and stable connection. it has everything you need even in free version!
About me: I'm an ethical hacker and cybersecurity expert. Do NOT use this VPN.
Yes, it may be "free", but do you know how a VPN works? Think of this VPN like a free man-in-the-middle attack inflicted on yourself, with the added benefit of slower internet speeds.
Does this protect you at all? Answer: No, none what-so-ever.
Pros: it's FREE!
Cons: it sniffs, records and logs all of your internet browsing (and net activity central to the kernel that you don't even understand how sensitive it is.) It adds in ADs and trackers, many of witch attempt exploitation vectors to infect your device. It slows down your internet, it has control over parts of the Android (and iOS) operating system that it shouldn't, it sells all of your personal info along with your device's CPU power and bandwidth... there may be a few others here as well. But hey, it's FREE!!!
If you want a REAL VPN with actual encryption, anonomity protection, elmination of ADs and trackers via DNS and a zero logging policy (as proven by court documents) just pay up the $40/year and get PIA (https://alternativeto.net/software/private-internet-access/). They are an excellent company with a great product at a fair price.
Note: I am NOT in any way affliated with PIA or any company for that matter.
Heath this man's words people, as it should be applied to any "free" vpn in question, on any platform. To understand, you must know how much money and maintenance is actually involved in running a server center capable of running tens of thousands of VPS instances (the least needed to be somewhat available to all as a fast-ish proxy). If a company offers a free service, it is assumed that the majority of customers will then elect to not pay. Ask yourself, is it even realistic to assume a company has a business model that is just ok with catering to thousands for free?

While VPN can protect your privacy ADWARE violates your privacy: it sells your privacy for profit. There is no free service to be had. The cost is far too high.
Lots of ads and stuff in the free version, popups can be a bit annoying but never fails to do it's function. Only can change IP to one country.
