💯 great 👍
Quick question Wolfgang, which command should we use for Windows users, because on the video you use the command: "Add -WindowsCapability – Online -Name OpenSSH.Client~~~0.0.1.0" and on the text version there is another command "Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name OpenSSH.Client*"?
What VPN do you use
thanks, man. Enjoyed the vid very much <3
Amazing!
Hi, but with this script, how can i access the default page of openvpn for client users, I mean they need a link because they dont know how to use sftp, apparently this script seems to disable the default page for admin and client, tell me how to access that
But still goverment win ( aka: CIA, FBI, NSA etc ) , because they can broken door of every VPN provider all over the world
Can this method work as an alternative to the usual VPN providers like express VPN if its server within a particular country gets shut down by an authoritarian government?
guys who has information about VPS and client users for free Internet by different carriers ?
Is this the most recent approach?
Great work
Guys could any of you tell share the website with the vps list?
Hello and thanks for the fantastic video, I have a question: How many Simultaneous connections can I have to the VPN?
Excellent! You really made me move me lazy hand over the like button.
Very complicated scripts how i can learn to start an make a vps server for myself. And make openvpn configs ??!!!
If this isn't a sting, it's a crime of umfathomsbile immorality and stupidity.
Fake face doesn't really deliver content to people!! Smile man 🙂
C'mon man, everyone knows pee is stored in the balls
You earned new subs
The beauty of a VPN provider who doesn't keep logs is that the traffic leaving their servers cannot be correlated to you. Using a VPS registered to your name as a VPN defeats that aspect entirely… the VPS provider can still keep logs of the traffic leaving your VPS, and it's even easier since the VPS is specifically registered in your name.
