Whenever I try to go to the Amtrak website on my phone, it defaults after a few seconds to Chinese rather than English. Does anyone know if there's a way to overcome that, other than always going to the Amtrak website on my laptop?
I recall seeing that a while back.Whenever I try to go to the Amtrak website on my phone, it defaults after a few seconds to Chinese rather than English. Does anyone know if there's a way to overcome that, other than always going to the Amtrak website on my laptop?
I had the same thought.People actually use VPN that is served out of China? Amazing!
Maybe it was out of Taiwan.People actually use VPN that is served out of China? Amazing!
Thats the only explanation that I could come up with. Nord has available servers in So Korea and Japan as well. Whats your take on this?People actually use VPN that is served out of China? Amazing!
Of course. But they also have scads of servers in the US. Someone who is sitting in the US trying to use mostly US sites but using a VPN server on the other side of the Pacific sounds pretty weird to me. Maybe it is just me, but I would try to avoid doing that. Unnecessarily adds latency and throttles performance.NoprdVPN has a server in Hong Kong as well as Taiwan.
A big reason I won't be renewing my NordVPN subscription when it expires in a few months: I have my server set to one of several US servers (usually Charlotte or Manassas as they're the closest, sometimes Atlanta) and it keeps routing me through Toronto, causing security alerts at work when my phone checks my email. I also sometimes have websites think I'm in Prague. So it wouldn't surprise me if someone in the US with their VPN set to the US suddenly "shows up" in Taiwan, Australia, or India.Of course.

Agreed. I would not touch such an irresponsible VPN provider with a ten foot barge pole. If I specify USA my VPN end point must remain in the USA always.A big reason I won't be renewing my NordVPN subscription when it expires in a few months: I have my server set to one of several US servers (usually Charlotte or Manassas as they're the closest, sometimes Atlanta) and it keeps routing me through Toronto, causing security alerts at work when my phone checks my email.

I use Private Internet Access and never had them move my selected host city, let alone change country.Agreed. I would not touch such an irresponsible VPN provider with a ten foot barge pole. If I specify USA my VPN end point must remain in the USA always.
