What is Windscribe?
Windscribe protects all of your computer activity, like browsing, Skype, email, and P2P from prying eyes. It's the simplest and most powerful VPN client you will ever use.
Travelling abroad where the Internet may be restricted? Use the "Stealth Mode" to bypass government firewalls and unlock the Internet just like at home.
Windscribe is not just a VPN; it’s a desktop application and browser extension that work together to protect your online privacy, unblock websites, and remove ads and trackers that follow you across the websites you visit every day. Never mess with confusing settings and options menus again. Our minimalist applications are designed to be turned on once and forgotten about.
Users can get up to 15 GB data for free permanently (monthly reset) by verifying email and tweeting once. Best of all, it offers a free trial for 24 hours once per account by simply asking robot Garry about it via chat!

company ran by real people for once
You get 10GB for free each month with the basic account, and if you enjoy it, consider upgrading to pro to help out the creators. Responses from support can take anywhere from a few hours to a couple of days. Speed is impressive, Affordable pricing, All servers can now access Netflix, Includes a server-side ad blocker with a whitelist option.
I was hoping there would be a desktop browser vs just an app, but the VPN seems worth a try if you get blocked with other VPNs
I crawl the internet a lot and it's important for me to stay anonymous. This browser helps me a lot! It copes with its task perfectly!
