more corporate require their employees working from home to connect to office network through a VPN. if vpn is made illegal, these companies would probably have to force their employees to come to offer for every single thing that needs to be done. ibm is a good example. you need a vpn to connect to company's servers to access emails. at least in case of my friend.
also. considering Linode is based in america, it is not really a good idea to use them for VPN in case privacy is more important.
Yep. I know. It's much risky to use US based VPN than using none at all. I set that up only for learning purposes and use it only to hide some browsing activities from Airtel *
I run the torrents without VPN. I guess, soon I'll go for ipredator and configure it over my rt-n16 running tomato.
* I know what DPI solution Airtel uses. It has ability to report on your browsing habits like top sites visited in the time period. But they don't have ability to find exact file downloaded via P2P though they can find the usage & bw for most of the P2P services including bittorrent . Of course, without vpn we will get caught by external authorities requesting IP details.

But the bad news is, it is much easier to granularity classify popular VPN services like ipredator & hma as they have predefined set of exit nodes. ;-)
well that's true. but i guess it would be a while before airtel inc start targeting VPN services. i mean how many people are going to pay over what they already do to airtel?HMA still has more than 200 nodes. and i guess they would be more than happy to add more in case their existing nodes are blocked by ISPs. it hurts their business!
for example. they have blocked certain twitter accounts. but they are easily accessible from mobile and desktop twitter apps using twitter api. government of course is happy as individual links are blocked.right. that would largely depend upon the policies of these hosts. i mean i am sure hosting companies in usa would not like their servers being used for piracy. Linode here might be offering you a vps with root and all that... you would probably result in some red flags if you start using it to torrent american copyright media as their IPs would appear on the torrent clients i mean i already pay shit load for the dedicated running this forum i can save myself 5 euros on ipredator. but i do not want to because i do not want to find out that my host had to shut down my server because of complaints from mpaa/riaa
