I agree, jr. I also use vpn. I am wondering how it compares to Virtual Shield that everyone raves about lately. I guess VS also blocks snoopers from accessing your camera and microphone. Do you know if vpn does this? Thanks for encouraging folks to free ourselves from online surveillance. Every way we retain our freedom is a powerful action to not consent to the violation of our right to privacy. Upped and resteemed!

It looks like the 'Virtual Shield' is just a VPN and does not seem to be doing anything extra special. I don't see anything about snoopers access blocking. Any VPN may block on external snooper sniffing your data but it can't prevent malware from 'phoning' home with camera and microphone data.
Hmmmm, William Mount claimed on his youtube channel that VS blocks camera/mic access. I have always liked PIA and it doesn't slow down my laptop, phone or tablet.
If it does it is either an effect of the VPN and then all will at the same level or I am just not seeing it on their website. I'll keep digging and see if I find anything different.
Ok, ditto, will let you know if I find more info on this. Certainly would be a great feature.
Indeed! Thanks for engaging!
