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.

5 ways to access blocked sites

5 ways to access blocked sites

If you have limited access to some sites at work, school, college, or anywhere else, you can use these tricks to access them.

5. Web Proxy

The proxy will serve as an intermediary between your and the server computer. I wrote more about Proxy HERE.

4. VPN

Another, more efficient, way to mask an IP address. If the Proxy doesn't work, try a VPN. I wrote about him too, so take a look.

3. IP instead of domain

Sometimes only the domain is blocked, but the site can be accessed directly via its IP address. To find out the IP address of a site, open CMD (Run> Cmd> enter) and type "ping www.domain-someone.something" (without quotes). Or through a site, e.g. here.

2. Edit the Proxy in the web browser itself

Simply install some Proxy add-on for the web browser you are using and enter the IP and Port of a Proxy server. You can find IP and Port on several sites, and HERE  again, you can see how to install and configure the plugin.

1. Google Translate

This way served me the most personally. This will not only work if all of Google and its servers and services are blocked. So, open Google Translate, select the language in which the site is (eg Serbian) and the language you want to translate (eg Croatian, because it can not be the same), and click on the link that appeared in the translation. Not all elements that may appear in some of the site's content are blocked by Google.

Their compression technology is probably now used by Facebook in its application because they bought Onavo - link . Google has decided to seize the opportunity and "push" with a new application called " Datally ".

Controversial U.S. anti-piracy laws, known by the acronyms SOPA and PIPA lost the support of eight members of Congress after major protests by the Internet community.

How to change IMEI number on Android phone?

IMEI is an abbreviation of "international mobile equipment identity" and each mobile phone should have a unique IMEI number. You cannot change this number with the operator, but you can temporarily change it on your device. It allows the operator to accurately identify your device and thus enable/disable network services. Also, you can use the possibility of changing the IMEI number, at least for a short time, if you know exactly what you want, but I leave those ideas to you because this is an educational article.

Wireless phone chargers - where, which and how to buy?

Wireless chargers are purchased separately from the device itself, and the user often does not know which Wireless charger to buy or where. Of course, they can be bought from us, not everywhere, but some stores sell them,  which I already wrote about .
