Avast secure connection
« on: December 07, 2016, 03:49:19 PM »
I want to know to what extent you are doing to protect the client that loads data from torrent sites? When do I activate avast secure connection (VPN) Am I in safety, or do you do you deal with governments.?!

It is worth mentioning that I from the Middle East .. maybe Privacy policy varies from one country to another !! I want to be sure and reassuring ..

avast is protecting a system as it does without using a VPN.

Any company has to follow to operate within the law(s).
So yes avast (as well as any other company) has to "deal" with governments or they are not allowed to exist and/or sell their products.

So .. what is the use if the VPN if it no provides protection and no makes encrypted data .. Are we wasting our time?

The VPN does encrypt the data, but a VPN doesn't prevent you from downloading malicious software.

My friend Eddy
My English is bad, so I'll be frank .. .. and I want you to be so as well.
I know that all VPN service providers do not admit nor agree to the privacy policy and terms of service of violating copyright .. but actually .. Avast specifically .. If you decide to use a VPN Avast to download movies and series .. Will Avast reveal my identity and I receive for governments?

This is very reassuring .. Now I'm going as I want .. but :

Talk here unsuspicious .. How receiving a complaint.?! Is not my anonymous private communication.?! Is not download encrypted.?! How suddenly appears who wants to file a complaint.?! .. They were saying that they do not keep any records of the client .. Is not this a contradiction?

There are many ways to "guess" where someone is from, it is not just the IP.

philidd, there is a reason why people post in English here.
This is a English forum.
