VPN Proxy by Seed4.Me VPN 17+

Seems to be good.

I purchased this few month back while in Ukraine and wanting to watch USA Netflix. It has some sort of mode that allowed me to do that. Since then I have used this all over the world with great success both on my computer and iOS devices. Not sure about privacy etc etc but it does allow to stream geo restricted content.

Decent speed - some drawbacks

Previously, I used Surf Easy VPN, but it got too slow. Seed4me is noticeably faster than the competition.

Since, it has slowed down somewhat (victims of their own success?), but it is still decent, especially when it comes to ping. As expected, the speeds vary throughout the day. It can get slow during the evening (4Mbps up/down), but I max my speeds in the mornings (15Mbps up/down). This is all on the iOS VPN. On my Mac, the connection is substantially slower, typically 3-5Mbps. I don't know why.

One negative of Seed4Me is the VPN profile setup. If you want to change locations, you have to uninstall your current profile to install a new location (e.g. switch from the Singapore to the Netherlands) This is much less convenient than Surf Easy, where each location has its own profile making it easily switchable.

who are they?

i don’t recall ever downloading this app and initially. so i’m paranoid about it. it seemed new then and i us d a weeks free trial, but i don’t know who the developers are, what jurisdiction they operate out, both legally and practically, what their real aim is, how truly secure their service is, whether they fight against large scale govt surveillnce or are a decoy service feeding off the concept to actually socially engineer their targets into thrusting all of their data through this possibly dceiftful source..

i’m not saying that’s true, not , ore info is needed. the website was not informative and i fear even legitimate vpn comments nn cations may still be weak if they only use pptp... or even l2tp..

better than nothing i suppose, unless they are a sham.. but atm i will try them.

1 last thing... i don’t like how the TOS says they reserve the right to install other software, programs, etc to monitor for potential illegal use of their service or other tos violations.... not that they track our internet traffic via their servers and service tunnels and connections, but an implied spyware instLlTion secret to the user, bundled with the product to monitor the device’s programs and activity. for that reason i will not be using this long...
