    Default PSA: Hide My Ass VPN

    I apologize if this isn't the right way to inform the general SW community but I found this out a few days ago and I thought y'all would like to know. (Another apology if this is some basic shit some of you are aware of but I see too many comments about recommending them to ignore it.)

    My friend is a professional hacker/cracker, to the point where she was applying to the CIA, etc. We were discussing VPNs and she told me unequivocally that she would NEVER use HMA because they are from the UK and are required to keep records on their custies. This is how the big raids on torrenting sites, etc. came about a few years ago. This, of course, is because she's INTENSE about her online privacy, but I'm very much the same way. You will probably fly under the radar - camming being legal and such, and even if you DO torrent, they're going after bigger fish - but if you're uncomfortable with having your internet records potentially accessible in the future, HMA is not ideal.

    If you're uber-intense about your privacy, get on a public computer somewhere or a burner phone and pay for a Private Internet Access VPN with a gift card from a custie.

    I may possibly write something in verified about totally erasing a trace of personal usage of the internet if there's interest, but it's a little OT and I know not everyone is as gung-ho about online privacy as I am.

    *Grain of salt: I should mention that I myself use HSS so it's not like I'm totally taking my advice yet either.

    Sorry, I'm not being quite specific enough with what I mean would be covered in the tutorial, but it's not exactly the kind of thing that gov'ts like - totally legal, mind you, they just don't like it - being discussed.
