Privacy and Geo restrictions is one of the common problem that many of us are facing today if you are a frequent traveller or if you are from a place where officials just block many of online services including VoIP like Skype and social networking sites such Facebook and Twitter.
So how to throw away these unwanted Geo restrictions and access any content that you wish?
It’s simple, just use a technology named as VPN or Virtual Private Network that will virtually change your country to the one’s that you wish where there are no restrictions and also VPN encrypt your send and received data making sure that no one can ever take a look on what you are doing.
Safer VPNis one such service that helps you to connect securely to the World Wide Web.

We were happy to see that it took approximately 12-13 seconds to establish secure connection.
Concerns
- If a country blocks VPN service by deep packet inspection (DPI) this one won’t work because of protocol limitation
- For some of you the price may be bit higher, but consider the fact they are using dedicated servers instead of VPS and this kind of servers are bit costly than VPS
- No kill switch
- They keep log of your session
- No automatic selection of fastest server or the closest country
What we liked in short
- Excellent customer support
- Good speed
- Dedicated clients for Mac, iOS and android
