ive bin doing my reserach on all this VPN's and proxy stuff to block NSA from snooping around my phone and computer but i dont want to trust some random online news post about ways to block NSA do VPN's work or should i get a proxy server if not what else works?
VPN? can the NSA get past and decrypt them?

Tor works
Using random proxies, 3+ works
Proxychains works
Vpns work if they don't store data, see private Internet Access.

I'm a PIA customer and I think they are great for most things, but the fact that they are based in the US and that they say that the warrant canary is security theater leads me to believe that they could have NSA presence on their servers with access to their secure keys.

if the nsa actually cared about you, you wouldnt be able to stop them.
fuck off you tool
Aiden Howard
true but thats the point i dont want them to star caring about me
Joseph Morales
Impossible.
Hardware tampering (silicon poisoning and the like) renders any kind of software based strategy futile.

VPNs have been fucked for a decade
IKE-SCAN, EPICBANANA, you have much to learn OP
Adam Price
underrated and this

that is why i have come

got it VPN's no good

The surveillance agencies don't break the encryption. They politely ask the VPN to provide ask the data logs relating to the person of interest, and get them immediately without fail.
>but dey wud neva give da info, dey say on derr website! dey don't even keep da logz! derr hosted in annudda cuntry! muh VPN loves me!

Honestly, if you're not a terrorist, pedo or cyber criminal, they really don't give a shit about you. (Yet.)

So you should avoid sticking out in their metadata filters. since you can't actually run from them.
Research about what the average user uses and how he behaves online and try to conform so you don't raise many flags

>snooping around my phone and computer
you use windows and an ithing/android device/windows phone. you already have multiple backdoors into everything you do. using a vpn to block your internet traffic from your ISP/police isn't going to stop the NSA.
Parker Hill
Using intel or amd as processors is already bad enough from a backdoor perspective.

The USA has some of the most secure laws for data privacy. Also, PIA doesn't store anything, your data just passed through them.

>IKE-SCAN
Unless I'm missing something this is just software to parse ike requests and can facilitate trying to crack an aggressive mode psk hash. This is fairly outdated and people shouldn't be using ike version 1 anymore.
>EPICBANANA
>Software vulnerability in one vendor
Sure there are vulnerabilities, but it's no different than anything else - ssh, ssl, etc. Also OpenVPN is completely different than ipsec and possibly safer than whatever vendor specific 0days the government is sitting on.

True about logs, but NSA could be sitting on the wire unencrypting everything.

the nsa gives 2 shits about you or your lithuanian lithographs.

Hahahahaha.

EPICBANANA is a sample of a vulnerability for the largest purveyor of network equipment in the world, and is outdated. Cisco let go of 20% of their staff after this got released.

The NSA have more vulns just like this one that nobody knows about for themost recent software versions.
Adrian Peterson
desu i dont care about nsa shit.. i just use it to torrent movies and pr0n
i do wonder why all of their config files have aes 128 encryption but none of their servers do, all of them are blowfish encryption
James Bailey
bite the bullet and delete them. i had to do the same thing

Stop being a fag, they won't waste resources on you, especially if you are a teen (see Romeo and Juliet law). But if you are really paranoid either use Truecrypt or Veracrypt to store them, or use Eraser to, well you know.
