Not necessarily, not everybody lives in friendly places. 200km is short compared to life in prison

EDIT: Just to be clear, the CARD act gave the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System regulatory authority over prepaid cards and it's the Federal Reserve that invoked the new rules that began in the spring.

Quoting myself here ^^^^ only to say that I just got a prepaid card today and the documentation now says the card cannot be used for international transactions or for subscription services in the U.S.

perhaps sending it per mail with a digit stamp that you can purchase over your cellphone it contains no info pertaining your location or name etc, that you can then simply write down on your letter with the money in it , that would be something for you perhaps , thats what im gona do after abit of thinking ive been doin , and all the mentioning of 200km banks

Gee, how convenient... It appears that "somebody" doesn't want people being able to make anonymous payments. And wants to be able to track every transaction one makes. They make it a point to target subscription services in particular... aka, VPN's. I see no coincidence there.

That makes cash the only viable, truly anonymous payment method I can think of. Liberty Reserve, BitCoin, etc... are not truly anonymous. They leave tracks that can (and don't fool yourself, WILL) be followed. With that in mind, Mullvad is the only VPN I can truly recommend. Send them cash money + your Customer ID in an envelop with no return address, and you're up and running with no trail left behind.

I rarely use a VPN anymore, and my subscription is about to run out. If I decide to use one again, it will be Mullvad. Unless someone can enlighten me about another one that accepts cash worth looking at?...

That sucks. So you can't even use them for subscriptions? Maybe you can with a Rush Card. I get money through paypal from a file sharing service. I was curious about getting paid anonymously with a prepaid debit. I wanted to know if it was possible to sell the service anonymously and also get paid anonymously.

Rush Card (a prepaid card service) told me that they can actually verify a Paypal account. Normally you need a regular bank account for that. They have their own routing number and you use JP Morgan as the bank.

They also said that their card can be used at ATM's.

http://www.rushcard.com/howitworks/where.aspx

I never actually tried this because I have a Paypal debit card that I use at ATMs and this is just so much more convenient, without the extra fees.

But if, say, I created an anonymous Paypal account and used a prepaid Rush Card to verify that account, then I could transfer money from Paypal to Rush Card and withdraw it as checking from an ATM. If it is possible to apply for and receive the card anonymously, then it seems that you could use it like a regular debit card, anonymously because it looks like a regular debit card complete with routing number and bank name. And of course withdrawing from an ATM, you will need your handy dandy nose and mustache glasses.

air vpn are **** there servers to me are slow so onto new pastures

[happyyarou666]

well as ive said in my vpn thread awhile back the fastest are bwprivacy , thou in terms of security and safety , wich is a very important factor , yeah id recommend airvpn , or mullvad if you want even slower speeds but pure swedish goodness

p.s: if you find anything that can offer the security airvpn or mullvad offer with the speed of bwprivacy please do tell

[rdebruin]

Well, I have a problem with bwprivacy. Paid with Paypal six days ago but my account is not updated. Have sent them several emails but no reply. Are they out of business or on holidays (one man operation)?

Well, after two weeks still no answer. I've filed two claims (Paypal).

I would advise not to use bwprivacy until this is sorted out.

[happyyarou666]

hmmmm....doesnt sound too good for bwprivacy and they was looking rather good on the anonymous payment option /privacy front , perhaps theyre speeds was too good to be true afterall?

p.s: yes maybe they are on holidays , a loooong holiday lols , id try and contact support once more perhaps youll get ahold of someone

[dread]

Is there an updated list that shows the good ones? From what I have seen not many will take paysafecard or Rixty. What are some anonymous ways to pay the vpn?

[mirimir]

BolehVPN and Insorg take Liberty Reserve.

[happyyarou666]

bitcoins ftw! you can pay with bitcoins in an 100% anonymous way , wich i personally recommend as it is the safest method and most anonymous possible if you follow the simple rules weve discussed not too long ago in this thread , no surveillance no backtracking no nothing , bitcoins should be accepted by most good vpns

p.s: for now i recommend the following vpns :

airvpn
mullvad
bolehvpn
bwprivacy<seem to have problems with support and paypal payments atm thou hmmm...

after the new laws for data retention in Sweden, aren't Sweden VPNs out of the top lists?

[PaulyDefran]

From what I recall from Countermail and AirVPN, they are not ISP's, so it shouldn't apply. But do a search because my memory is failing. Send an email to the providers, that would get you the most current info.

Have a link with info. regarding this? I know they've been trying to push such a thing for a long time now, but didn't hear it went through.

If so, my God, there's nothing left...

Nope, see my earlier answer:

[ComputerSaysNo]

If there is a VPN you want a review of let me know. I'll be doing in depth reviews for a blog/webpage I'm just starting to write at.

I also hope to bring you discounts and some promo codes.

[arran]

anyone else here on Air VPN? because my downloads speeds are very slow, not sure if its Air VPN or because my ISP is throttling. for people who are using Air VPN what are your http download speeds like?

[PaulyDefran]

Try connecting to UDP 53 or 80 and see if they go up. I had a marked increase when I got off of 443. You can also try TCP to see if your ISP is shaping.

PD

Edit: I just downloaded a Revision3 HD episode and the speeds were between 500KB/s to 1MB/s. My un-VPn'd line is 36Mb/s and can download it at 3MB/s....so not too shabby for a *privacy* oriented VPN.

[AaLF]

Ladies & Gentlemen,

A favor please. I've not paid attention to these hide your i.p. thingies like ToR & on-line VPNs etc as its not something big with me.

Been asked to suggest a couple of choices. She wants to surf incognito PLUS be able to join Facebook etc with hidden I.P.

I said I'll let you know this afternoon. Time's nearly up. So what are a couple of choices. Seems personal / hobby stuff so I'd like to offer a freebie & an inexpensive alternative plz.

[mirimir]

AirVPN and BolehVPN are both good, and not very expensive.

I don't use free ones.
