Because of a new law in India, major VPN providers took out their India servers. Do I have any other option to have an Indian IP address. I am not an expert, but maybe Tor or something.
I would appreciate any workarounds you have. I wouldn’t mind spending some money too. These Indian lawmaking mother****ers are following the path of China and North Korea. Really frustrated.
Just connect to a VPN server in a neighbouring country. As far as I see it, is not worth it to have an Indian server anymore because of the new law.
A few VPN providers have started using Indian IP addresses in data centres based overseas such as Singapore and London. So hopefully you’ll still look as though you’re in India.
I have removed my comments and submissions in protest to a growing number of poor decisions made by Management of Reddit.
Google “multi hop vpn” , “double vpn” , “secure core vpn”… in a nutshell, what you do is to connect to a vpn server in lets say Switzerland and then to an Indian vpn server, so if the authorities check the traffic in the Indian server, all they see is the traffic coming from Swiss one, and they won’t be able to see the traffic of your own ISP.
Did you find any good solution. I am in the same boat now. My VPN has stopped its Indian servers and I need a way to access some websites are geo restricted. No streaming or anything - just accessing the websites once or twice a year!
If this helps, why have so many providers decides to pull services in India?
Is there any additional overhead for them?
I did find. But, unfortunately this sub doesn’t allow to use specific VPN providers name. But, if the mods wants to delete this comment they can. But, I am using “e x prz vpn” which has virtual India server.
They’re pulling out of India physically because the Indian government is insisting that they hand over all info to the Indian government. About the subscribers and what websites etc. that they access. You simply can’t run a VPN for the public, in India any more. If you care about security.
