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.

How to try Facebook Emotions first?

How to try Facebook Emotions first?

Facebook Emotions is a new option that expands the Like button because, as Zuck states, users cannot fully express their feelings with just one button. What if a post is very sad, Like (I like it) is not an appropriate option for the user.

So now we have a set of 6 additional emotions, in addition to the Like button, and these are Love, Haha, Yay, Wow, Sad, and Angry. However, this option is only available to users in Spain and Ireland, but how can you enable it?

How to try Facebook Emotions first?

I tried several ways (although I was sure that the last option would work for sure, still check) to activate this option by making Facebook think I'm from one of those two places. So, I tried to change the language on the Facebook site to Spanish, and in my place of residence information - it didn't work, I just got confused on Spanish Facebook. Then I switched to the option I knew would work - Proxy!

  1. Download some Proxy Switch plugin for your web browser, e.g.: Chrome, Firefox
  2. Open the plugin and add a new one to the profiles
  3. Enter the IP and port of the Proxy server from Spain  (eg 83.231.34.133 and 3128)
  4. Save, and in the upper right corner you have the add-on icon, click and select a new profile
    Proxy Switch addon

You can find a few more detailed instructions on how to configure those two add-ons in THIS article.

Where to find a Proxy from Spain?

On Hidemyass I found only one that doesn’t work, but on Google, I found a couple of lists. You can too, and here is a list to shorten your time:  http://spys.ru/free-proxy-list/ES/

The only drawback is that other users who do not have this option will not see the emotions you gave for the post but will stay there and when everyone gets this option they will see them.

As for mobile devices, I failed to cross FB, and I tried with Mock location and Proxy as well. Root on Android doesn't help, and I haven't tried it on iOS.
