Q: Does the Tor browser hide your IP address?

Yes, but only from the sites you connect to — instead of your IP address, they will only see the IP address of a Tor server. However, the first Tor server you connect to can see your real IP address — if a malicious actor operates it, they could collect it and use it to track your location or online behavior. T hat’s why I recommend using a VPN before you access Tor, as it will prevent any Tor server from seeing your real IP address — the VPNs I mentioned in this article all provide Tor support on their servers and come with very strong security and privacy features.

Q: Can you use the Tor browser for torrenting?

No, as the Tor network is not good for torrenting — some Tor browsers block P2P traffic, and even Tor’s developers ask users not to use the network for P2P downloads. That’s because Tor’s speeds are pretty slow and its bandwidth is limited, so torrenting over Tor will cause even more slowdowns. Plus, I don’t think that torrenting over Tor is secure, as some Tor servers can see your IP address , which is terrible for your privacy. Instead, I recommend using a VPN for torrenting, as you get much better P2P speeds, security, and privacy — ExpressVPN is my top pick for torrenting, as it allows P2P downloads on 3,000+ servers in 90+ countries, has the fastest torrenting speeds out there, and provides excellent security and privacy features.

Q: Can you use Tor to circumvent geo-restrictions?

Not really — I have seen people claiming you can use Tor to circumvent geo-restrictions to access streaming content abroad, but this is not really accurate. My colleagues in the US and the UK tried to access US and UK streaming sites via Tor, and they weren’t able to do it. This is likely due to how simple it is for streaming services to block Tor servers, as their IP addresses are public. If you want to stream shows while traveling, I recommend using a VPN — ExpressVPN is my top pick, as it consistently works with 65+ streaming apps, including top sites like Netflix, BBC iPlayer, and Disney+, and it also provides the fastest streaming speeds on the market, and has very user-friendly apps.

Q: Is it illegal to use the dark web?

It depends on what country you’re in. It’s legal to use the dark web in most countries, but there are places where using the dark web might be against the law. I strongly advise doing your own research to make sure you’re not breaking any local laws by accessing the dark web . Also, even in countries where accessing the dark web is legal, it’s still against the law to use or host sites that promote criminal activities.

Question 1

Is it safe to download the Tor browser?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but only as long as you download it from official sources, like Tor’s official website. Otherwise, you risk downloading fake apps that might infect your device with malware.

That said, using the Tor browser is not 100% safe, as the Tor network has a few security issues. That’s why I strongly recommend using a VPN together with Tor to protect your privacy — all of the VPNs I mention in this article provide great Tor support and excellent privacy and security features.

Question 2

Does the Tor browser hide your IP address?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but only from the sites you connect to — instead of your IP address, they will only see the IP address of a Tor server.

However, the first Tor server you connect to can see your real IP address — if a malicious actor operates it, they could collect it and use it to track your location or online behavior.

That’s why I recommend using a VPN before you access Tor, as it will prevent any Tor server from seeing your real IP address — the VPNs I mentioned in this article all provide Tor support on their servers and come with very strong security and privacy features.

Question 3

Does the Tor browser work on iOS?

Accepted Answer

No, but Tor devs recommend using the Onion Browser app as an alternative. It works well, it’s free, and it provides decent privacy since it’s open-source.

However, it can’t provide the same level of privacy as the Tor browser due to how the iOS operating system works — it forces the Onion Browser app to use Apple’s WebKit browser engine instead of Mozilla Firefox’s Gecko browser engine, which is used by the Tor browser and can provide better anti-tracking functionality.

Question 4

Does the Tor browser slow down your speeds?

Accepted Answer

Yes — I performed 10+ speed tests with Tor, and it always slowed down my original speeds by 98–99%, which is a lot. It usually took up to 5–10 seconds for most websites to load.

Tor’s speeds are really slow because it encrypts your traffic multiple times. Each layer of encryption increases the time it takes for data to travel between your device, Tor’s servers, and the sites you access.

In addition, Tor’s server network is pretty overloaded — at the moment, there are only around 8,000 Tor servers, which are not really enough for the 2+ million people that use Tor.

There’s not much you can do to speed up Tor, so I recommend only using it to browse basic websites — I advise against using it to access sites that host tons of multimedia content, or to binge-watch HD videos.

Question 5

Can you use the Tor browser for torrenting?

Accepted Answer

No, as the Tor network is not good for torrenting — some Tor browsers block P2P traffic, and even Tor’s developers ask users not to use the network for P2P downloads. That’s because Tor’s speeds are pretty slow and its bandwidth is limited, so torrenting over Tor will cause even more slowdowns. Plus, I don’t think that torrenting over Tor is secure, as some Tor servers can see your IP address, which is terrible for your privacy.

Instead, I recommend using a VPN for torrenting, as you get much better P2P speeds, security, and privacy — ExpressVPN is my top pick for torrenting, as it allows P2P downloads on 3,000+ servers in 90+ countries, has the fastest torrenting speeds out there, and provides excellent security and privacy features.

Question 6

Can you use Tor to circumvent geo-restrictions?

Accepted Answer

Not really — I have seen people claiming you can use Tor to circumvent geo-restrictions to access streaming content abroad, but this is not really accurate. My colleagues in the US and the UK tried to access US and UK streaming sites via Tor, and they weren’t able to do it. This is likely due to how simple it is for streaming services to block Tor servers, as their IP addresses are public.

If you want to stream shows while traveling, I recommend using a VPN — ExpressVPN is my top pick, as it consistently works with 65+ streaming apps, including top sites like Netflix, BBC iPlayer, and Disney+, and it also provides the fastest streaming speeds on the market, and has very user-friendly apps.

Question 7

Is the Tor browser different from a VPN?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the Tor browser and a VPN are similar, but there are some differences between them. The Tor browser is a web browser that connects you to the Tor network, which changes your IP address and encrypts your traffic at least 3 times. A VPN is an online app that lets you connect to VPN servers to change your IP address and encrypt your traffic (usually just once). Also, the Tor browser is free and open-source. On the other hand, most VPNs have paid plans and only some providers have free plans, and only a few VPNs come with open-source apps.

I personally think the Tor browser is only good for surfing dark web links, while VPNs have many more use cases — they’re great for streaming, torrenting, gaming, and bypassing censorship. And while both Tor and VPNs provide security and privacy, I think VPNs are better because Tor has some security issues. What’s more, VPNs are much faster than Tor, and this also allows them to help you prevent bandwidth throttling.

Question 8

Tor over VPN or VPN over Tor — which is better?

Accepted Answer

Tor over VPN connections are much safer than VPN over Tor connections, and easier to use too — they prevent Tor servers from seeing your real IP address, stop anyone from seeing you’re using Tor, and they protect your real IP address if Tor suffers a leak. Plus, most top VPNs (like ExpressVPN) support Tor traffic on their servers.

However, VPN over Tor connections provide poor privacy, as Tor servers can collect your real IP address. What’s more, anyone can see you’re using the Tor network. And very few VPNs support VPN over Tor connections — and the ones that do require you to perform an inconvenient manual setup.

Question 9

Is it safe to access .onion sites on the dark web?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but you need to be cautious because there are many malicious sites on the dark web. Always make sure you’re using the correct .onion link. The best way to do that is to get the link from legitimate sources, like The Hidden Wiki. What’s more, you should always use a VPN (like ExpressVPN) with Tor to protect yourself from IP leaks. I also recommend using an antivirus (like Norton 360) to protect your device from malware infections.

Question 10

Is it illegal to use the dark web?

Accepted Answer

It depends on what country you’re in. It’s legal to use the dark web in most countries, but there are places where using the dark web might be against the law. I strongly advise doing your own research to make sure you’re not breaking any local laws by accessing the dark web. Also, even in countries where accessing the dark web is legal, it’s still against the law to use or host sites that promote criminal activities.

Question 11

Is it safe to access the dark web on an iOS or Android device?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but you need to take some precautions to avoid cyber threats. In addition to the Tor browser, you should use an antivirus program (like Norton 360) to protect your device from malware infections, and a VPN (like ExpressVPN) to secure your IP address and traffic. Also, only use .onion links from legitimate sources like The Hidden Wiki.

Question 12

Which is better — Tor over VPN or VPN over Tor?

Accepted Answer

Here’s the difference between the two:

Tor over VPN. This means you’re first connecting to a VPN and then to Tor.
VPN over Tor. This means you’re first connecting to Tor and then to a VPN.

I personally recommend Tor over VPN because it’s the safer option — the VPN encrypts your traffic and changes your IP address, so the Tor network can’t see them. That’s helpful because Tor can suffer IP leaks and malicious actors can run Tor servers. Basically, if a Tor IP leak occurs before you connect to the VPN, your real IP address will be exposed. But if you connect to the VPN before connecting to Tor and an IP leak occurs, only the VPN’s IP address will be exposed.

If you need a great Tor VPN, I recommend ExpressVPN — all its servers allow Tor traffic, it has excellent security and privacy features, and it provides fast browsing speeds.

Question 13

What’s the difference between the dark web and deep web?

Accepted Answer

The terms are often used interchangeably, but they’re not the same. Here’s the difference:

Deep web. This is a part of the internet that doesn’t show up on conventional search engines — basically, it includes unindexed web pages like pages hidden behind paywalls, medical records, and email accounts. So, this is the internet that search engines can’t access.
Dark web. This is a part of the deep web that is intentionally hidden and is fully encrypted. Regular search engines can’t access it — it can only be accessed via the Tor browser.

Question 14

What is the best parental control app for YouTube?

Accepted Answer

Qustodio is the best parental control app for keeping kids safe on YouTube in 2023 — it monitors both the YouTube app and site on multiple platforms, and it shows you what videos your kids watch and what terms they search for. It also lets you enable safe search on YouTube, block the YouTube site (top VPNs can’t bypass the block) and app, and set time limits for the YouTube app.

Question 15

Can parental control apps monitor YouTube’s site and app?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but most parental apps can only monitor your child’s activities on YouTube’s site. Luckily, there are a few parental control apps that also monitor what your kids do on the YouTube app, such as Qustodio and Bark.

Question 16

What can a parental control app monitor on YouTube?

Accepted Answer

Most parental control apps can monitor what your child searches for and watches on YouTube, but some top providers can display or monitor even more information. For example, Qustodio shows the name of the YouTube channel and the video’s thumbnail and Bark monitors the videos your kids post and the comments people leave on their videos.

Question 17

Can I block YouTube with a parental control app?

Accepted Answer

Yes — as most top parental control providers come with web filtering and app filtering that can block access to YouTube’s site and app. I personally recommend using Qustodio, as top VPNs can’t bypass its web filtering (so kids can’t use them to unblock YouTube), and it can also block YouTube’s app on iOS, whereas most parental apps struggle to block iOS apps.

Question 18

Can I use a free parental control app for YouTube?

Accepted Answer

I don’t normally recommend using free parental control apps, as they usually provide limited control over YouTube. Plus, they’re risky to use (since you allow them to access sensitive information, which they can share with third parties) or lack essential parental control features.

That said, if you insist on using a free parental app, I recommend trying Qustodio’s free plan because it’s the best on the market, and it allows you to block access to YouTube’s site and enforce safe search on it. Kaspersky Safe Kids’ free plan is also an option, as it lets you enable safe search on YouTube and also block YouTube’s site and app.

But, ultimately, I recommend getting a paid premium parental app for YouTube because it simply provides better value — for example, Qustodio’s paid version monitors the YouTube site and app and lets you see what your kids watch and search for, allows you to block YouTube’s site and app, and also lets you set time limits for the YouTube app.

Question 19

What are YouTube’s built-in parental controls?

Accepted Answer

YouTube’s built-in parental controls are Restricted Mode and YouTube Kids.

Restricted Mode should filter out a huge range of “adult” content, but it’s ineffective. In about 5 minutes with Restricted Mode turned on, I was able to find speeches by famous white nationalists, footage of war-torn Aleppo, a cannabis cooking show, women in lingerie, and a brutal street fight in Colombia. However, as said, YouTube does offer another option for parents — YouTube Kids.

YouTube Kids is a separate app and website that offers different levels of filtering for younger kids. It blocks the vast majority of inappropriate content, but there are still all kinds of creepy, violent, sexual, and inappropriate videos on YouTube Kids. However, you can turn off the Search function in YouTube Kids, so kids can only watch videos that have been approved by human moderators.

Overall, you’re much better off using a premium third-party parental control app to monitor and restrict your child’s access to YouTube — my top pick is Qustodio because it allows you to monitor what your kid watches and searches for on YouTube’s site and app, it lets you block access to the YouTube app and site (and kids can’t use VPNs to unblock the site), and it also lets you set time limits for the YouTube app.

Question 20

Is there inappropriate content on YouTube Kids?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, yes. While YouTube Kids blocks a ton of content, with 500+ hours of content uploaded to YouTube every minute, there’s no way for YouTube’s algorithms to block all of the inappropriate stuff.

There are really, really strange and disturbing videos targeting kids on YouTube. Noteworthy examples include Peppa Pig committing suicide, Spider-Man drowning Elsa, Minecraft characters shooting and killling each other, kids getting pranked, hurt and traumatized, and pedophiles using toy unboxing videos to groom and target kids.

Take a look at my tips on keeping your kids safe from bizarre and offensive content that occasionally makes its way onto YouTube Kids — especially if you’re as horrified as I was when I started researching for this article.

I mainly recommend using a good parental control app to have more control over your kids’ access to YouTube — for example, Qustodio lets you see what videos your children watch and what they search for on YouTube, and also allows you to block the YouTube site and app, and set time limits for the YouTube app.

Question 21

How can parents keep kids safe on YouTube?

Accepted Answer

The best way to protect kids on YouTube is to use a premium third-party parental app that can monitor and restrict children’s access to YouTube. I personally recommend trying Qustodio, as it can show you what your kids watch and search for on YouTube’s site and app. Also, it’s able to block YouTube’s app and site (and kids can’t use VPNs to bypass the block), and it lets you set time limits for the YouTube app.

Futhermore, there are a lot of other different ways to keep kids safe on YouTube — depending on the age of your kids — such as:

Use Restricted Mode (best for older kids).
Use YouTube Kids (better for younger kids).
Turn off Search in YouTube Kids.
Teach your kids to block and flag certain videos and channels.
Create curated video playlists for your kids.

Question 22

Is YouTube Kids free?

Accepted Answer

Yes, YouTube Kids is free. You can access it online even if you don’t have a YouTube account. But if you do make an account, you’ll be able to customize YouTube Kids and allow your kids to use the Watch It Again feature (which is also helpful for parents that want to track their children’s YouTube history) and also get content suggestions based on their previously watched videos.

If you subscribe to YouTube Premium, you can pass on your premium benefits to your kids by signing into your account. This includes ad-free viewing, free video downloads, and the ability for YouTube to play in the background even when you leave the app (which is great for kids that use YouTube as a music player).

Question 23

What’s the best VPN for getting cheap flights?

Accepted Answer

ExpressVPN is my go-to option for getting cheap flights in 2023 — it comes with servers in 90+ countries, so you can connect to tons of locations to try and save money on flights. In addition, the provider’s apps are extremely simple to use, and it also comes with industry-leading security features.

Question 24

What’s the best VPN server location for cheap flights?

Accepted Answer

My colleagues and I saw the best discounts with servers in lower-income countries, such as Algeria, India, and Egypt. We usually saw flights that were at least $50 cheaper that way.

But you might also see cheaper flights with server in the same country as the airline you’re flying with. For example, I looked up a flight from New York to Paris run by Air France while connected to servers in France, the US, Germany, and the UK — I saw the cheapest flights while connected to the French server.

Just keep in mind that there’s no server location that can consistently provide you with cheap flights — a lot of factors influence the price, so you just need to test different countries until you find the best savings.

Question 25

Can I get cheap flights with a free VPN?

Accepted Answer

You can try, but I don’t really recommend it — free VPNs usually limit you to very few server locations, so you can’t test different countries to see which ones provide the best savings. In addition, I also don’t like how some free VPNs lack essential VPN security features, have very slow speeds, and have buggy apps.

It’s honestly better to get a paid, affordable VPN, like ExpressVPN — it has servers in tons of countries (including many lower-income locations) and always provided my colleagues with discounts on flights in our tests.

Question 26

Is it legal to use a VPN to get cheap flights?

Accepted Answer

Yes, as VPNs are legal in most parts of the world, and using one to get discounted flights is not against the law. That said, some countries ban VPNs, so I strongly recommend researching your local laws to make sure it’s 100% safe to use such a service.

Question 27

Why are flights cheaper in some countries?

Accepted Answer

There are tons of factors that influence the price of flights, such as:

How wealthy the country is.
How expensive it is for the airline to operate flights to or from a country.
How popular the flights are in your country.
How popular the destination is.
If you’re traveling during high or low seasons.
Political events or changes that take place in a country.
If you’re located in the same country as the airline you want to fly with.

I recommend using these metrics, as well as a VPN (like ExpressVPN) and the other tips mentioned in this article, when booking flights, as they might help you save money.

Question 28

What’s the best VPN for getting a Saudi IP address?

Accepted Answer

My favorite VPN for getting a Saudi IP address in 2023 is Private Internet Access — it has a virtual server location in Saudi Arabia, provides very fast speeds, works with all of the top streaming platforms, is very good for torrenting, and provides excellent security and privacy features.

Question 29

Can I get a Saudi IP address with a free VPN?

Accepted Answer

No, most free VPNs don’t have servers in Saudi Arabia. Even if you find a free VPN with Saudi servers, I recommend avoiding it — free VPNs usually lack important security and privacy features, have slow speeds, limit how much data you can use each month or day, and have buggy apps.

Instead, I recommend getting a low-cost premium VPN like Private Internet Access. It has a server location in Saudi Arabia, comes with excellent streaming and P2P support, provides very fast speeds for streaming, browsing, and torrenting, and is very secure.

Question 30

Can I watch Netflix with a Saudi IP address?

Accepted Answer

Yes — if you have a Saudi Netflix account and travel abroad, you won’t be able to access all of your titles back home, but a Saudi IP address will let you do that. The best way to get a Saudi IP address and access Netflix with it is to use a VPN that has Saudi servers and works with Netflix, like Private Internet Access.

Question 31

Can I torrent with a Saudi IP address?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can use a Saudi IP to torrent, and the best way to do that is to use a good torrenting VPN. I recommend Private Internet Access — it supports torrenting, works with top P2P apps like uTorrent and Deluge, comes with excellent security and privacy features, and has port forwarding.

Question 32

Is using a Saudi IP address legal?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and the best way to get a Saudi IP address is with a top-notch VPN. However, because of Saudi Arabia’s strict control over internet access and other security concerns, many VPNs don’t have servers in Saudi Arabia.

So, make sure to read my list of recommended VPN providers. My favorite VPN for using a Saudi IP address is Private Internet Access — it has a virtual Saudi server, is very secure, maintains blazing-fast speeds, works with all of the top streaming platforms, and provides excellent P2P support.

Question 33

How else can I get a Saudi IP address?

Accepted Answer

You can also get a Saudi IP via a proxy, but I don’t recommend using this method. A proxy server changes your IP address just like a VPN, but doesn’t use any encryption, which puts your data at risk.

I instead recommend using a top VPN like Private Internet Access. In my tests, I got a Saudi Arabia IP address on every attempt, and it only took me 1–2 minutes to download the VPN app and just 2–3 seconds to connect to a Saudi server to get a Saudi IP address.

Question 34

How do I check if I’m using a Saudi IP address?

Accepted Answer

You can check if you’re using a Saudi IP address with a free IP leak tool. After connecting to a server in Saudi Arabia with your VPN, I recommend going to ipleak.net to check your IP address and location. If the results come back showing a Saudi IP address and location, then you’ll be able to confirm that you’re using a Saudi IP address. Private Internet Access also has its own IP checker tool on its website.

Question 35

How can I get a Saudi IP Address?

Accepted Answer

The easiest way to get a Saudi IP is to use a VPN, which can change your real IP address to one from Saudi Arabia — just follow the steps mentioned above to get started in just a few minutes.

If you’re not sure which VPN to choose, I recommend Private Internet Access — it has 1 virtual location in Saudi Arabia, provides excellent security and privacy, maintains blazing-fast speeds, and comes with really good streaming and P2P support.

Question 36

Which sites don&#8217;t work in Saudi Arabia?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, Saudi Arabia blocks many websites and apps. These are just a few examples:

VoIP sites like Skype and WhatsApp.
Facebook Messenger.
60,000+ pornographic/semi-nude websites.
Gambling websites like bet365.
Foreign news sites like Fox News and The Times.

This means if you’re visiting Saudi Arabia and want to access these sites, you’ll need to use a VPN. Private Internet Access provides servers in 90+ countries, and the customer support team confirmed you can use them to access blocked websites while in Saudi Arabia.

Question 37

What can I do with a Russian IP address?

Accepted Answer

A Russian IP address lets you access Russia websites, as some of them might not be available outside of Russia. In addition, a Russian IP address also lets you mask your real location to enjoy more privacy.

To get a Russian IP address, you need a VPN with at least 1 Russian server. I recommend CyberGhost VPN — it has 40+ servers in Russia, allows torrenting on all of them, works with Russian sites, provides excellent speeds, and comes with high-end security and privacy features.

Question 38

Can I watch Netflix with a Russian IP address?

Accepted Answer

Not at the moment. Netflix has suspended its services in Russia because of the country’s invasion of Ukraine. However, in peaceful times, you can watch Russian Netflix with a good VPN — I recommend CyberGhost VPN since it has 40+ Russian servers, consistently works with Netflix, and has fast streaming speeds.

Question 39

Can I torrent with a Russian IP address?

Accepted Answer

Yes — to do that, you need to use a good torrenting VPN that also has servers in Russia. I recommend CyberGhost VPN because it has 40+ P2P Russian servers, works with top torrenting apps like uTorrent and Deluge, and provides very fast download speeds.

Question 40

Can I use a free VPN to get a Russian IP address?

Accepted Answer

No, since most free VPNs don’t have Russian servers. Even if you find a free VPN that has servers in Russia, I recommend avoiding it — free VPNs usually lack important security and privacy features, limit how much data you can use, have slow speeds, and have buggy apps.

Instead, I recommend getting a low-cost premium VPN like CyberGhost VPN — it has 40+ Russian servers, provides very fast speeds, has great streaming and P2P support, and is very secure.

Question 41

Is using a Russian IP address legal?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it’s legal to obtain a Russian IP address, and the best way to get one is with a VPN. Many VPNs don’t have servers in Russia, but luckily all of my top picks do — CyberGhost VPN, my #1 VPN, has 40+ Russian servers, really fast speeds, and high-end security and privacy features.

Question 42

How can I check if I’m using a Russian IP?

Accepted Answer

There are a couple of good (and safe) third-party websites like www.whatismyipaddress.com that will allow you to quickly and easily check if you have a Russian IP address. In addition, some top VPNs (like CyberGhost VPN) have a free IP address checker or a free DNS leak test on their website.

Question 43

What are the dangers of using a Russian IP address?

Accepted Answer

Honestly, there are few risks associated with using a Russian IP address. However, you should be aware that many websites are blocked in Russia, including social media sites and international news outlets. So if you want to access these types of sites, you likely won’t be able to do it with a Russian IP.

Question 44

Which websites don’t work in Russia?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, there are a lot of websites that don’t work in Russia. Here are some of the top sites the country bans:

Facebook.
Instagram.
Twitter.
Google News.
BBC News.
Quora.
NPR.

Question 45

Which sites are only available with a Russian IP?

Accepted Answer

There are some sites only accessible to people in Russia, so you won’t be able to access them abroad since you’ll have a different country’s IP address. You might be able to access a few other Russian websites from a different country, but the features on these sites will be more limited, and you may struggle signing up for some of them. Here are a few examples of Russian websites with potentially restricted access:

Yandex. This is a search engine similar to Google that offers cloud storage, maps, email, etc.
Zvuk. A Russian music streaming service.
Rutube. A video-sharing platform for user-generated content (similar to YouTube).
VKontakte (VK). A social networking platform like Facebook.
Odnoklassniki (OK). A Russian social networking site.
Mail.ru. For e-mail, games, news, etc.
Rambler. A Russian news site.

Question 46

What’s the best VPN for Lebanon?

Accepted Answer

I think ExpressVPN is the best VPN for Lebanon in 2023 — it has 3,000+ servers in 90+ countries (including many locations near Lebanon), provides industry-leading security and privacy features, has the fastest speeds on the market, and has excellent streaming and P2P support.

Question 47

Can I use a free VPN for Lebanon?

Accepted Answer

I don’t recommend it, as most free VPNs don’t have servers in Lebanon or countries near Lebanon. Even if you manage to find a free VPN with servers in or near Lebanon, I recommend avoiding it — most free VPNs lack essential security features, have very slow speeds, don’t work with streaming sites, and have glitchy apps.

It’s much better to get an affordable top VPN like ExpressVPN instead — it has servers in many locations near Lebanon, provides industry-leading security and privacy features, has the fastest speeds on the market, and is excellent for streaming and torrenting.

Question 48

Can I use a VPN to torrent in Lebanon?

Accepted Answer

Yes, as long as the VPN you’re using allows torrenting on its servers. If you’re looking for a good VPN for torrenting in Lebanon, I recommend trying ExpressVPN since it’s the best P2P VPN in 2023 — it allows torrenting on all of its servers (including many server locations near Lebanon), works with top P2P apps like uTorrent and BitTorrent, has the fastest download speeds on the market, and provides high-end security and privacy features.

Question 49

Can I use a VPN to access Netflix in Lebanon?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If you travel to Lebanon, you might lose access to your Netflix home library — but you can use a VPN to connect to a VPN server in your home country to access the platform. All the VPNs on my list work with Netflix, but I think ExpressVPN is the best Netflix VPN on the market, as it consistently works with Netflix, can access 10+ Netflix libraries, provides lightning-fast streaming speeds, and is extremely easy to use.

Question 50

Is using a VPN legal in Lebanon?

Accepted Answer

As far as I know, yes. I wasn’t able to find any sources confirming that it’s against the law to use a VPN in Lebanon. That said, I still strongly recommend researching the local laws yourself to make sure there are no legal repercussions for doing this.

Question 51

Can you get a Venezualan IP address with a free VPN?

Accepted Answer

Maybe, but most free VPNs don’t have servers in Venezuela. And even if a free VPN allows you to access a Venezuela server, I normally recommend avoiding free VPNs because they lack important security features, might log and sell your traffic, don’t work with streaming sites, have slow speeds, and limit how much data you can use.

Instead, I recommend getting an affordable premium VPN like ExpressVPN.

Question 52

Can I torrent with a Venezuelan IP address?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can torrent with a Venezuelan IP address, but you need a good P2P VPN that has at least 1 server location in Venezuela. I recommend ExpressVPN — its Venezuelan server supports torrenting, maintains blazing-fast speeds, and works with top P2P apps like uTorrent and Vuze.

Question 53

What is the best VPN for getting a Venezuelan IP address?

Accepted Answer

ExpressVPN is my favorite VPN for getting a Venezuelan IP address in 2023 — it provides excellent security and privacy features, works with Venezuelan sites like Netflix Venezuela, has very fast speeds, and is very easy to use.

But the other VPNs on this list are also good choices — Private Internet Access is great for torrenting with a Venzuelan IP address, and CyberGhost VPN.

Question 54

Can I watch Netflix with a Venezuelan IP address?

Accepted Answer

Yes. To watch Netflix Venezuela abroad, you need to use a good Netflix VPN that has at least 1 server in Venezuela. I recommend ExpressVPN because it consistently works with Netflix Venezuela and provides very fast streaming speeds.

Question 55

How can I access Binance from anywhere?

Accepted Answer

The best and easiest way to access Binance from anywhere is with a VPN. When you connect to a VPN server, you’re assigned an IP address that matches your new location (for example, your home country). This will make it appear as if you’re actually in that country, which will allow you to access your Binance account no matter where you are in the world.

Question 56

What is the best VPN to access Binance from anywhere?

Accepted Answer

ExpressVPN is my top recommendation because its global server network provides connections in 90+ countries, so most users will be able to connect to their desired server, and it has high-end security features and the fastest speeds out there.

Question 57

Is it legal to use a VPN with Binance?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but it may be against Binance’s terms of service. Binance isn’t allowed to operate in certain countries, including Thailand, Germany, the UK, and the US. If Binance detects that you’re using a VPN to access its site from one of the countries where Binance isn’t allowed, your account may get suspended or even banned. This is why it’s important to use a top quality VPN like ExpressVPN to access Binance.

Question 58

Can I access Binance with a free VPN?

Accepted Answer

I don’t recommend using a free VPN to access Binance. First off, most free VPNs don’t work with Binance. While there may be some free VPNs that can access Binance, I wouldn’t trust them — most have small server networks, lack strong leak protection, are missing a kill switch, log user data (including your activity on Binance), and don’t have many other essential security features.

Instead, I recommend buying a premium VPN like ExpressVPN. It consistently works with Binance, has 3,000+ servers in 90+ countries, provides excellent security and very fast speeds, and it offers a 30-day money-back guarantee — so you can test it out risk-free.

Question 59

Why can’t I access Binance while abroad?

Accepted Answer

Your Binance account is tied to the country you select when registering your account. Sites like Binance use geo-restrictions to ensure users are accessing its services from the country where they’re registered. If you’re outside of your home country (where your Binance account was initially set up), you’ll need to use a VPN to access your account — you can simply connect to a server in your home country. You might also be unable to log in because Binance doesn’t operate in certain countries.

Question 60

Are there porn apps for Amazon Fire Stick?

Accepted Answer

Porn apps aren’t available on the Amazon app store, but you ca n sideload (manually set up) Android apps using third-party applications. It’s possible to do that because Amazon Fire Stick’s operating system (Fire OS) is based on the Android operating system.

However, you should research Android porn apps before you sideload them — downloading shady apps could damage your Fire Stick.

Question 61

Can you access porn sites on Amazon Fire Stick?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you just need to use a web browser app — Amazon Fire Stick already comes with its own browser called Amazon Silk.

But make sure you use a VPN when you do this — it will prevent porn sites from logging your IP address and sharing it with advertisers, and it will also stop hackers and your ISP from spying on your porn traffic. I recommend using ExpressVPN because it has a very intuitive Fire Stick app, blazing-fast streaming speeds, and high-end security features.

Question 62

Why use a VPN to access porn on your Fire Stick?

Accepted Answer

Here’s why I recommend using a VPN to access porn on Amazon Fire Stick:

It stops porn apps from collecting your IP address (which they might share with advertisers).
It makes your traffic unreadable, so your ISP and hackers can’t spy on it.
It stops your ISP from selectively throttling your speeds to porn apps and sites.
It allows you to use porn apps and sites, and watch porn videos that are only available in your country when you travel abroad.

If you’re looking for a good VPN, I recommend ExpressVPN — it has a native Fire Stick app that’s very intuitive, comes with lightning-fast streaming speeds, has 3,000+ servers in 90+ countries, and provides excellent security and privacy features.

Question 63

What’s the best VPN for accessing porn on Amazon Fire Stick?

Accepted Answer

ExpressVPN is the best option for surfing porn on Amazon Fire Stick devices in 2023 — it has a very user-friendly Fire Stick app, provides the fastest streaming speeds on the market, works with popular porn apps and sites, has 3,000+ servers in 90+ countries, and comes with industry-leading security and privacy features.

Question 64

Can I access porn on Amazon Fire Stick with a free VPN?

Accepted Answer

I generally recommend avoiding free VPNs. Most of them don’t have Fire Stick apps, and the ones that do are very slow, limit how much data you can use each day or month, and lack essential VPN security features.

Still, if you insist on using a free VPN, I recommend Proton VPN’s free plan — it comes with unlimited data, a user-friendly Fire Stick app, pretty fast speeds, strong security and privacy features, and it even works with popular porn apps and sites despite there being no streaming support. However, the free plan limits you to servers in the US, the Netherlands, and Japan, and only lets you connect 1 device.

But ultimately, I recommend getting an affordable premium VPN like ExpressVPN since it provides much better value because it’s very fast, has a really intuitive Fire Stick app, provides servers in 90+ countries, and comes with high-end security and privacy features.
