SWITZERLAND: THE SAFEST COUNTRY FOR DOWNLOADING TORRENTS

Switzerland is by far the safest country for torrents. According to Swiss law, downloading music and movies (even copyrighted works) ‘for personal use’  appears to be completely legal.

‘Personal Use’ is a bit of a general definition, but generally if you aren’t attempt to profit from the download, or distributing it to a large number of people, it’s you’re likely ok.

But the Swiss will take your online freedom even further…
The monitoring of peer-to-peer downloads by a 3rd party is actually illegal!

According to this article on Torrent Freak, IP addresses are considered personal information (your IP address is the only personally identifying information available in a torrent swarm). Since collecting personal information without consent is illegal under Swiss law, 3rd party monitoring agencies are actually committing a crime if they do so. This effectively kills the ‘business strategy’ used by a number of ‘Copyright Trolls‘.

Though there are new laws under consideration that will help rightsholders remove copyrighted material from web servers, the Swiss protected personal freedom to download files for personal use will likely remain legal for the foreseeable future.

On Feb 26th 2017, we moved over to our new web site.

If you had an account with us prior to this date, we will need to migrate you over to the new site.

Note – Your old password will not work on the new site.

We will be migrating customers in batches. On or around the date of your next subscription you will receive an email with a link to your new account, and setup instructions. Just click the link and enter you details to complete the setup.

Your VPN will continue to work as normal while we move you over, and you will still have the same VPN password (the password you use to setup the VPN client on your device) when you have completed the setup on the new site.

Your old account has been frozen. There is no longer a payment gateway attached to the old site, so you will no longer receive charges from the old site / account. Eventually, when the migration is complete, we will remove all accounts from the old site. In the meantime, you can access your old account with the old password here if you need to.

If you want to cancel your account, simply do nothing, and ignore the emails about the  upgrade, and your account will be cancelled if you do not register on the new site.

Some sites have started to check your location using your browser location settings, and will not play content until you enable location. This can cause a problem if you are using a VPN to unblock content from another location.

Open Chrome, and install this plugin from the Chrome store.

When its installed, click on the blue pin that should now appear on the top right on the browser, and enter a US co-ordinate, tick the on/off box, and click SAVE 

We used :

Latitude 39.96

Longditude -75.16
