Pornhub launches its own VPN

Pornhub is launching its own VPN service today with free and unlimited bandwidth. The VPN is supposed to help users avoid ISP throttling and geographic limitations. It’s also designed to let users transmit data anonymously without saving or collecting any of that data.

To get started, you download the VPNHUB app on your device and then tap setup. On the iPhone running iOS 11.3.1 that I tested it with, the app prompted me to create a VPN in settings. You might see an error message at first, but despite that, the app’s main page, which shows a swirling lock symbol, will whirl a bit and then activate your VPN. Then, to check if the VPN is working, go to a site like WhatisMyIPAddress.com and check your IP address. If it’s working, it should list your location as a generic city and have swapped out your usual IP address.

Pornhub’s VP Corey Price said in a statement to The Verge that incognito browsers don’t offer enough cover from “prying eyes,” especially if users are still browsing on public Wi-Fi networks, so the VPN will provide an added layer of security and privacy.

The VPN service is available on Mac, Windows, Android, and iOS. Although the service will be available in many countries, it’s going to be banned from countries the US doesn’t do business with, including Myanmar, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria. Pornhub also notes that it’s “had reports that our VPN might be blocked in” countries like Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and China.

There’s also a premium option available called VPNhub Premium, which costs $12.99 per month in exchange for no ads and supposedly faster connections. There’s a free 7-day trial available, and you’ll be able to choose from a range of countries and locations like Australia, Brazil, Canada, Japan, Singapore, the UK, and major US cities. Free users only have access to their nearest server.

The website recently launched support for cryptocurrency, which allows users to easily make anonymous payments to the site.

Let's block ads! (Why?)
