Taiwan can use VPN (not restricted) and not against the law. Just saying.
Taiwan is not part of China
China is part of Taiwan.
Or more precisely, PRC is rebelled provinces of China.
West Taiwan
Hello from Taiwan, while your heart’s in the right place this meme actually plays into China’s hands as it fits their one-china narrative. Taiwan considers itself an independent nation and hopes the wider international community will begin treating it as such.
Last time I heard you still officially maintain your claims to mainland China, Mongolia and part of Russia and India.
Also, I wouldnt say his heart is in the right place. PRC is the direct result of the faliure of the KMT junta and its widespread terror.
Either “China” only ever hurt mainland. Taiwan is a democracy that circumstantially became viable and manageable (even then, it took decades) on an island with the population of 20 million people.
I agree with your sentiment that Taiwan is probably better off by itself. Nobody actually knows how to manage mainland properly.
Tankies hate this one weird trick
Thank god this list isn’t any larger, it’s amazing more governments haven’t tried to ban this tool that ensures people’s freedoms
Thing is, a VPN isn’t just some magic tool that lets you view location-restricted content and hides your IP address. It’s a relatively basic networking concept.
Essentially, it allows you to connect two or more local networks, i.e. LANs, as if they were one big LAN.
In particular, that means no firewalls in the way, no weird NAT behaviour, no need to deal with public IP addresses and so on.
And it secures the whole communication with encryption + implements a form of authentication, so that you can leave the individual services within the VPN relatively unsecured (assuming you don’t separately expose them outside the LAN/VPN).Or more concretely, my dayjob uses a VPN for the whole home office thing. And I’ve used VPNs plenty times just as a networking tool in my software developer job. Prohibiting the entire concept of VPNs makes many software solutions impossible or annoying to build, and will cause folks to expose insecure services to the internet.
The UK government tried to restrict VPN usage (not that they ever explained what restrict meant in that scenario) but as with most stupid things that the UK government says, everyone just ignored them and then it didn’t happen.
I suspect somebody with two brain cells to rub together explain to them the process and since it sounded complicated they gave up with it.
Weird, it’s almost like they all have something in common…
Oh man Hexbear would be so pissed if they could read.
How does well does Tor work in those countries?

The same list as countries that you should never step your foot on
You don’t know shit about Turkey apparently.

go tell me…what NOT to hate about turkey. small dick energy country like “oooh we wann be called turkyie or bharat but not turkey coz we so weak our finance minister has sex with presidents relatives…”
They got them cats though
What do businesses do with remote offices/workers?
Can’t speak for most of these places but I’m pretty doubtful in general.
I have no idea what it means for VPNs to be restricted in Turkey for example… I use them almost every day. Personal, self hosted, commercial, corporate… Both using them while I’m in Turkey to get information from the outside and when I’m outside trying to get information from the inside.
I’ve never had any issue using them. Like literally ever.
you copy pasted this from reddit
it had no sources
it is wrong
you are a very bad person
no one on Lemmy is disputing this map
you are all also bad
Could you list the correct version if available?
On part of Russia, this one is true
Hey look, it’s the bad guys!
