Discussion

Thoughts on Obscura's two party VPN protocol?

Are there other technical solutions that vpn providers are implementing to create a more trustless relationship?

Great Q

Thoughts around VPN company ownership? Any red flags or signs to look for when choosing a VPN provider?

What about VPN hosting providers (such as M247), how can they pose a potential risk?

Also interested to hear your thoughts on M247πŸ‘

Anything around best practices, i.e. setting up VPN on home router and then on single devices as well? Or turn off VPN on device at home?

Thanks, will definitely cover that

Does anyone use android auto? It won't allow a connection with VPN on. Even with cable, still sometimes get the VPN notification.

GM!

I love what nostr:nprofile1qqsxkj3fh02r68gwa6knsn639ka4j88fgp7j0kay3t25kqxe6tsew2cpr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctv9uq3vamnwvaz7tm9v3jkutnwdaehgu3wd3skuep0vtm0fa is doing, but on iOS it doesn't work when nostr:nprofile1qqs8p6w3v4ljzrh7sjrysazgumzge22584jqhtcuv7y4hxwp6kasfvcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0wd68ytnsw43qu0fmf8 is used. Is using the paid nostr:nprofile1qqsdru78zcu6uwa6zlludjx7k87m8ft9q6e5jgsn6qe49rxzj9frwpqpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0wd68ytnsw43qdgkgx7 exit node service directly in Tailscale an adequate alternative, or are there any downsides?

Great Q. Thanks

What can you say about nostr:nprofile1qqs8wygvglqyjd3wxsytqe06ltsdm8zrxgrpfsktsxr2zexkledwqsgpzdmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2ue0x8z0se VPN and HydraVeil by nostr:nprofile1qqs2c0m2lct4j0mpsyz38kkf58j5f6rmnn53kf7n0wywck8m42gpf2spg4mhxue69uhny6nndekxsenwv4kxjee4v93hzdnfv93hjerd0fjxyerdvumhsam4dekng7rvxechwcnk0fskxae5d3mhy6ndd3ukgtn0de5k7m30q9zhwumn8ghj7cnfw33k76twwgmxgef4d34hv7p5w3c8werd0fexgenywpkxzdtn09snyctxwacxxctzdf6hqvncwp5n2er4d33xzepwdahxjmmw9uqsuamnwvaz7tmwdaejumr0dshs33wfg8?

Advantages, tradeoffs...?

Maybe more related to Amethyst. But when I turn on my VPN, I can't browse Nostr anymore. Why?

That’s super weird. Do you only have a local relay connected or something? Perhaps the VPN is blocking local connections

Heading to the #WOB, see you there lad.

A lot of websites refuse to work with VPN's, esp bank websites. Typically I have to turn off my vpn to log in.

Is there a workaround for websites like this?

Covering now

Intresting thread, found it late, I sometime uses public Wi-FI with tailscale exit node which is at home. Is this tunneled connection provides encrypted data flow which i logically think yes. But is there any vulnerabilities i need to think about.?
