Here's what a VPN can't protect you from (but you need to use it)

The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

5x more internet traffic on your phone!

Are you a postpaid user? Do you have a limited number of megabytes, and spend them fast? Or do you, as a prepaid user, buy megabytes for a certain number of days but consume them quickly? There is a solution! And up to 5x more throughput for everyone, for all networks in the world! How? The answer comes in the form of mobile applications "Onavo Extend" and "Opera Max".

These applications work on a simple principle: a query that a user sends for a site first goes to the mobile operator, is forwarded to the server, and is returned to the user who sees the site in the browser as a result. These applications intercept all traffic, compress it, and return the compressed data to the user. This transfers much less data, thus saving megabytes.

5x more internet traffic on your phone!

All the user needs to do is install the app, allow the app to build a VPN on the device, and enjoy the extra megabytes. Applications run in the background and the user does not even have to configure them. With the Opera Max application, you need to choose which networks you want to save bandwidth on - WiFi and/or 3G (and 4G).

Also, the applications have statistics so that the user can see at any time how many megabytes he saved, on which applications, in what period, etc.

Note: Android will recognize Opera Max as a battery-intensive app, but that's not true. There is a detailed explanation for this - http://www.opera.com/help/max/android#battery

You can download Onavo Extend for Android 4.0+ and iOS devices -  http://www.onavo.com/

Opera Max is only available for Android - http://www.opera.com/mobile/max

Gmail – Block lists

How do I add an email to a block list in Gmail? Easy, with the help of the Filter option. If you receive annoying emails, advertisements, offers, etc. you can add that email to the block list and your messages will no longer arrive. We will use the Filter option in Gmail , where we will set options for an email to mark all messages as read and then automatically move them to the trash (messages from the trash are automatically deleted after 30 days).
