Nice video! Companies use more VPNs than individuals for security reasons, but having a centralized server is actually dangerous...Data leakage is almost unavoidable.
DPNs change that. Check out Deeper Network, no way for a data leak
@coleman janeczek yea, I don't trust any vpn. If i have to, I'll use decentralized DPN
I'm in high school and these kinds of videos are really helpful and informative. Thanks, Gary.
Gary is always there for you
Install a VPN
I did two things when I was in high school. The library club, (world wide web now), and the career counselors office. I did my entire high school education from the library, and the career counselor's office. Today I am secure, with 150+ job skills,(I stopped counting), and I have absolutely no need for a job ever...( I have not had a job for 40 years. I retired at 30,and again at 32, and then again, and again, and again...etc). Good luck to you.
@@agod5608 What does it mean you have no need for a job ever - thst you made enough money to never have to work again or you self sustain w food and trade? Is that why you retire after every 2 years on a job that you get just to learn another career/set of skills for personal satisfaction? If you are living off savings and/or pension, what will you do if there is financial/ government collapse or corruption?

Brilliant. I've watched loads of these videos. But your diagrams and explanation especially at 7:00 - 7:40 are the first that actually makes sense. Thanks so much.
Best, most comprehensive explanation of VPN ever! Thanks!
well said ! i agree

Excellent vid. I wish every video was as clear, precise and helpful as this one. Top man, thank you. :)
Cheers, great vid! I use Boleh VPN and I'm all done... speed, price, customer service.. There are many of us using this service. They're great, respect for them!
You should mention after connectiing to VPN now you are trusting your data with that 3rd party company and you should check their policy for keeping records on the traffic you sent through them. E.g. How long they will keep a record of my activity.
Correct. This is why trustworthiness is important
@@pneumaticoinvernale2370 This is why decentralized computing is the future and we are going to see the rise of the cryptoverse.
But doesn't our data get encrypted before it even reaches the internet.
Very good point 👌
@@brammicky9514 Yes but the VPN Service provider has the key the decrypt your encrypted data.
Very helpful video best one I found so far, I’m doing my research before i start using VPN.
Nice. Beautifully, explained, simply, explained. Easy for everyone to understand.
CONGRATULATIONS sir.
Great video.
With best wishes.
Great video, A little bit of additional information: A IP Adres does not have to be like how he described it can also be a more modern version called IPV6. Where ipv4 adresses are running out, ipv6 has more adresses available. A ipv4 adress looks like : 1.160.10.240 where a ipv6 looks like this > 3ffe:1900:4545:3:200:f8ff:fe21:67cf
The reason why I mention this is because, if there are so many ipv6 adresses the adresses will no longer be linked to region or a city. Instead it will be linked to your personal device! They dont have to guess anything about you anymore, they will be able to track you down to the very device and house what you used to access the data. For this reason VPN is very important in that case then it is when you have a Ipv4 adress!
This android authority intro is awesome, nice video as well.
Great Job, Gary. I now understand why I have been hacked so many times. Thank You for the network protection.
Same here!
With my lack of computer knowledge this is a little more than clear as mud to me. Thank you I’ll need to start studying more so I can understand more clearly.
I was looking for an explanation of VPN that my brain could almost understand, and this video is it! Great video!
Thank you for explaining Gary!) Personally, I use VeePN and I can only say good about it) Affordable price, high-speed access and personal data protection.
Hey it's VPN.
I could listen to you the whole day! If you'd been my teacher I would have learned more at school. No matter about what you're talking, it's interesting!! Keep on!
Thank you for the explanation, the added illustrations made it easier to understand.
The more you understand it, the more you will explain it simply. Thanks alot
Very helpful video, to the best of my knowledge though the server dealing with the requested web page won’t have any info on you. Firstly you’ll have a private IP so it will only go as far as your ISP’s router. After that, I think as the request makes its way over routers, they only hold a copy of the last IP requesting it - stored in the routing table. So if the request hops across five routers, each router will only know the IP of the previous router. Eventually it can work it’s way back to your ISP router, which has a record of the router IP that made the original request, sending it to your home router, which in turn holds a record of the IP of the device wanting the page. I’m happy to be proved wrong here if anyone has good knowledge on how the data packets make their way across.
Have you come to a conclusion ?
I meant that respectfully, because you make a fair point
Thank you
People within the same building have compromised my laptop and has been going on for yrs would a new service provider and a VPN type router break the curse or using one of those dual screen lap tops at least distract their constant minute by minute spying using different scenes on either screens ? i tried a VPN TRIAL service once and it made no difference?
Gary, there are additional factors to consider: whether the VPN is tracking your browsing habits, whether they're logging your IP, their jurisdiction, the user's location, and whether they physically own and operate their own DNS servers. The best do no track or log, own their own equipment, provide powerful encryption, and can't answer to any subpoenas because the don't maintain the info sought by authorities. In addition, there's the WebRTC exploit that revels IP addresses between certain browsers even if you're using a VPN.
Who'is the best Vpn?
Its this time of the week!
Gary.
Good explanation ,, thank you sir.
Good explanation
Gary....You did an amazing job with the explanation. I will share this vid with anyone who wants to understand the BASICs of VPN. Well done!
just finished making my first track! thanks bro for all the help with learning soft soft. much love
thank you so much Gary! God speed :)
So if in use a VPN and look up said taboo subject you were talking about would my ISP still be able to see that I looked that up or just that some random person looked it up
Thanks, much appreciated! I’m new to this VPN stuff but old in years. Love travelling as cheap as possible so am expecting and hoping this direct access for flights and accommodation will be worth the cost of VPN.
I hate videos with so much fluff before they get to the question they implied they would be answering. This video was not that. It provided nothing but great and useful information. Straigh to the point! It is not an easy subject to explain but this guy answered it perfectly and the visuals were very helpful. Thank you!!!
This guy explains soo good!! Hail Gary🙌
Awesome thankyou.. Please make one on seed box.
Vpn in my iphone
Gary this is a most excellent presentation.Thank you .
Simple and to the point of the subject topic matter. Clear concise explanations of how things work. I actually subscribed.
I use vpn so I can use the school Wi-Fi without being blocked out of some apps
That works!? Man wish I knew this when I was in school
Some school districts are fortifying their filters so that it blocks VPN addresses
Hi, when you say dont do banking in a coffee shop.... would the fact it's an httpS site not encrypt anyway?
Yes, I think he forgets to mention that. The data leaves your phone encrypted with the public key from your bank, so only your bank can decrypt it. They can sniff your packet but all they'll see in it is encrypted data.
Thanks, Gary! Clear and concise explanation...just what I needed to know.
Thanks for explaining this clearly and concisely.
This is a feature of VPNs that isn't its original purpose. Useful information for individuals trying to hide or change their identity on the Internet, but NOT what people traditionally use VPNs for. The original idea was to connect private networks over the Internet to each other encrypted. It had nothing to do with "hiding" or changing your geolocation, but instead just connecting in a way that was secure and seemless.
If you have any source that explains the original idea of VPN, please share it, I need to know the original idea.Have read from 2 books but that didn't helped me !

But, usually our data is already encrypted by "https" without using VPN.
Thanks Gary, terrific job of explaining VPN.
well done, very clear , concise , informative to the point. Professional, what you expect !!!
So if I use a public WiFi hotspot, and I first connected to my vpn, then went to PayPal, what would a potential hacker see, just the vpn server I'm connected to? Nothing else? The hacker can't then follow the trail from the vpn server onto PayPal?
Once you connect the VPN the hacker does not see or can do anything, but you first must connect to the system that will protect you. You would'nt dress for work then proceed to get into you car and not have your under wear and pants?

Thank you for an understandable explanation. So good.
"rooooter o modeeem" 😂😂😂😂
Same thing.
To an Aussie rooter sounds rude lol
i know that this is gonna sound like a stupid question but can you establish a vpn or a temporary vpn with a device on a public connection to create an encrypted connection?
yes, you can do it!
Yes, NEVER use public WiFi without a VPN.
Yes, you can establish a VPN or a temporary VPN using a device on a public connection to create an encrypted connection. Just install a VPN app from a reputable provider and connect to a server. This will encrypt your data and protect your privacy even on public Wi-Fi.
Thank you for clarifying this topic.
Beautifully explained. Thank you so much for sharing!
question what's the difference between free VPN and paid VPN?
You need to be especially careful when using a free VPN. If the free VPN is not by a reputable company then they may be logging your passwords etc.
Free vpn can actually be often time a less maintance of security despite allowing users to gain access to other countires services and it may even be a lot slower than a paid one. The paid vpn gives you more secuirty, for example higher level of encryption much more stable connection and higher bandwits which would increase your internet speed when connecting through the VPN.
+Martin Dimchev also they may actually steal your info which is how they maintain the sever even though its free for you
Opera Developer Edition currently has a free VPN that's not shit.
+Mata Dukic Also some free ones limit the bandwidth and data usage and they might also sell ads
we people use VPNs for breaking the GREAT FIRE WALL... lol
great fire wall renders VPN's useless.. but if you are able to use one it's merely at the pleasure of the Chinese government.
But there are surely some working ones right?
+DOGE™ exactly
CHESLEY FU I'm asking because i don't no either, and I really need one badly cause I'm going to China this summer.
DOGE™ goverment allows tourists to use VPN'S to keep them happy.. but im not very sure tho
Very explicit and highly appreciated from me.
back in and recently got soft soft again, it felt strange and i had previously just taught myself the software. Finding your videos is helping
i got some doubts
1) does the internet provider knows that i am using vpn?
2) and does the vpn provider know what i am accessing to ?
3) is their any chance that vpn provider can know my passwords of the sites that i visit to?
Charan Teja yes yes and yes. Hide me VPN is trustfull.
The ISP might know if you're using a VPN when they look at the data and see random characters since it's all encrypted. Honestly, I can't give a definite answer to this.
Whether a VPN-service knows what you're accessing will depend on if they keep logs, like logs about the traffic, bandwidth or the IP-addresses of the VPN-servers that you use. Always pay close attention to if they keep logs of any kind.
I don't think VPN-services can see your passwords since websites typically use https on the login page. Which is also a form of encryption. Https prevents people from seeing what you're doing on a website, but say your ISP could still see that you've connected to the website (if you're not using a VPN).
Charan Teja It all depends on what internet provider you have
Root PP
Full of information but he talks so fast. So hard for me to understand since I'm not a techy person. But overall it seems that the video do have a lot of information needed to know what VPN is.
manually slow the video down if required, or pause / go back until you understand
This guy's amazing as simplifying Love him

the hospital next to where i live has free public wifi. I use it everyday and i already cut my cable company and flipped them off!
Haha
Though the Wi-Fi would be quite slow.
public wifi is not secure though.
***** exploits won't be affecting me only and won't be because of using public wifi so i'm sure you're the one who doesn't know anything about networking.
***** and for ms08 it still requires to decrypt the files on the device..and will happen to anyone not just someone with a public wifi
This is incredible, Short, precise information I sought. Thanks.

We do! Gary has a whole series of explain videos. Just head to the AA YT page and find the Playlist =) he's gotta have around a dozen now.
I've been in IT for over 20 years, I have never heard a router get called a rooter. I'm pretty sure a rooter is for up clogging a sewer line.
What is a rooter?😜
reminds me only of rooster :D :D :D :D :D :D

Thanks buddy. A crystal clear explanation
very well presented thank you Gary !
Very good presentation, clear, logical. Recommended.
Great vid and explained it to me thanx,but I understand that as my service provider no longer recognises me it won,t work and also my antivirus.
always awesome Simple and Straightforward.....
What about When your in Starbucks! But it asked you to sing up to there WiF is it then Secure or should I still use a VPN when I’m in my coffee Shop
You can also set up something like SoftEther VPN on a server or computer at home, connect to it with an encrypted VPN connection and access your home network or the internet securely as if you are from home. It's free, pretty sweet and not really that hard to setup!
