I've used their VPN service for about a year and have no complaints. Connections are stable and fast. Maybe not quite on the level as PIA…

You mention the data retention scheme as a reason to sign up. But given you're domiciled in Australia, doesn't that mean you are also…

Well, this is a bit of a co-incidence. The HDD I described above has just now failed. It has been booted from my array and smartmontools…

Just to add another data point: I bought 4 toshiba 5tb and have been running them in RAID10 for a bit under a year and a half. Two have…

[@BKZ](/comment/4071743/redir): Hey, thanks for the kind words. I sort of agree with you in one sense: I don't think there are really any…

I think the brand is called 'Southern Cross'. It's one of the cables in their 'submarine' line (weird name).
How is my comment misleading? Could you please point out where I said this is unusual? Are you suggesting people should lie about their…
Thanks for the article. I've read it (although I'm already quite familiar with the law) and, frankly, that author has a pretty naive…
"We optimise your data before sending it across our private network, so you have an added layer of encryption and privacy" Hmmmmmm:…
Just to make sure other are aware: the 'domain contact' information that they display to you before purchase is not actually the full…

There's very little information out there, based on my googling. There shouldn't be too many issues in theory. Intel graphics driver…
I second that. Seriously, no matter how good the price looks, spare yourself the pain of dealing with Lenovo and their spyware infested…
