Description
Windscribe is much more than a VPN. It’s a desktop application and browser extension that work in conjunction to protect your online privacy, unblock websites, and remove ads and trackers from your everyday browsing. With Windscribe, you’ll never mess with confusing settings and options menus again. Apart from the easy-to-use interface, one of the biggest benefits of choosing Windscribe’s service is that it provides unlimited downloads and unlimited simultaneous connections. It’s also touted for its above-average anonymity, including a strict no-logging policy and anonymous sign-up that doesn’t even require as much as an email address.
