We recommend these VPN providers for those in Pakistan:
- Private Internet Access (server in Hong Kong, excellent support, good privacy policy, allows torrenting, inexpensive)
- VPN.AC uses TLS-authentication to mask OpenVPN handshake packets (thus hiding it from Deep Packet Inspection)
You can read full reviews of these services in our article The Best VPNs.
The Details: VPNs For Pakistan
Last year, Pakistan greatly increased the number of websites it censors and filters, and the government recently announced plans for full-scale monitoring of citizens.
You can avoid these restrictions by using a VPN (virtual private network). A VPN is a service that encrypts and redirects all the internet connections on your computer. This means all the data leaving your computer is encrypted, which adds a layer of protection against hackers and eavesdroppers.
A VPN will allow you access websites like Netflix, BBC iPlayer, Pandora and Hulu. You can also torrent and access the Usenet without being spied upon.
