I've been wondering why i went back to low id but I missed this thread. So AirVPN still has this feature? It's unreal, I just started using this Mullvad service a month ago and it was so easy to setup, lol. My luck...

I feel ya. It was so easy to Setup indeed! It sucks because otherwise their vpn is incredible. And I even sometimes use their privacy browser.

So far YES, although I am worried that they will eventually cave too. I had been thinking about trying Mullvad as an alternate for port-forwarding, so I was distraught at the news! I hope you did not purchase a 3-year plan.

I wonder if they will give refunds for those who no longer want the changed service?

Mullvad has given out refunds since their announcement as far as I know

That is honest and fair, so I guess I can't despise them!

Friends such a question, what VPN you use to open movies on sites such as Amazon.com and Primevideo, and maybe on these sites for each movie a different country ? :roll:

I have a free add-on from Googl TouchVPN - I can't open any movie on these sites :cry:

Most VPNs don't work for Amazon Prime Video. They also check the DNS server. It also has to be located in the US (for example).
I figured out, that HolaVPN does work for Amazon, but its free version is very limited (and not secure because of this p2p thing...).

Or you sign up at a DNS proxy like smartdnsproxy.com.

Why do they put such a restriction, I do not understand, it turns out that if you are not from the USA, you will not be able to download anything. Thank you very much for this site smartdnsproxy.com , I will try it, I think there is a promotion there 14 Days Free Trial ;)

Download from Amazon Prime VIdeo? It's not possible in a normal way like with your browser or a download manager. You need special software for it. Their videos are DRM protected.

It's bad :cry: , in general, one problem after another, it's a pity these resources have a lot of rare movies that can't be found online :roll:
