• Cannot figure out OpenConnect

  I chose to migrate from openvpn to openconnect because I felt like the performance wasn't very good, I have it running per the wiki, created my own user and everything, my phone works great, I have the routing working for LAN and all. However on my laptop, I can successfully connect but not actually browse to anything. Nothing loads from LAN and external Internet sites take a while to load. I'm using the...

• When will we get our rpi emails back?

  Nothing against you but don't use this VPN, it downloads spyware called Umbrella in addition to AnyConnect. Use openconnect-gui instead. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Can RPI spy on you if Umbrella is disabled?

  I recommend using openconnect, it works with Cisco VPN and doesn’t download other software. Source: almost 3 years ago

• VPN Issues

  Here is an alternative vpn you can use. It doesnt have all the tracking shit that cisco has. Source: almost 3 years ago

• So... CrowdStrike?

  I read it's only if your device is listed on RPI's active directory (might be something else) such as library computers. I was connected to eduroam for four days and haven't seen anything downloaded. In addition, if you need to use the VPN download openconnect instead, as Cisco AnyConnect downloads Umbrella which tracks you even after disconnecting the VPN. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Russia has started indiscriminately blocking all OpenVPN/WireGuard connections

  Outline (https://getoutline.org) is even easier to deploy than Streisand and uses Shadowsocks. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Set Up a Self Hosted Outline VPN with Amazon LightSail in 5 steps.

  Outline, a free and open-source VPN service developed by Google, is renowned for its user-friendly design. It can be conveniently established on diverse platforms, and this blog will specifically guide you through the process of setting up a self-hosted Outline VPN using Amazon LightSail. - Source: dev.to / 10 months ago

• How can I bypass extreme website restrictions in my university wifi?

  Another good way is to set up your own VPN server on Digitalocean or something. Use a VPN protocol that is good at escaping detection. I recommend Outline VPN (getoutline.org). It's an open-source project that uses the Shadowsocks protocol and aims to provide censorship-free Internet to journalists in certain countries. It's not a VPN service so you need to set it up on your own server. Source: 9 months ago

• Is there any way to circumvent the shitty VPN ban that we have in place other than, well, a VPN ?

  Use a self-hosted Outline on GCP or any other cloud platform, it works really well in my experience for circumventing these blocks. Source: 10 months ago

• Shadowsocks vs. Astrill?

  Shadowsocks is a protocol. Technically not a VPN, but looks like one. Shadowsocks is a string of code that needs a server. You can get a VPS (aka server for $2/m) and install Shadowsocks. Alternately install outline, it's largely based on Shadowsocks. Works also with the Shadowsocks client, or others, like V2rayNG. Source: 11 months ago
