[QUOTE="jetman, post: 877279, member: 63028"] Just for an experiment I have installed F-Secure Freedome on my Windows desktop and I have a Windscribe extension in my browser. I think this is called "double hopping". Can anyone tell me- > What does my ISP know about my browsing ? > What does F-Secure know about my browsing ? > What does Windscribe know about my browsing ? I assume the purpose of double hopping is to improve privacy (not that I have much to hide) but I expect that it would slow down connections. Plus I don't see a way of enabling this on other devices such as an ipad or a phone. I'm interested in people's comments ! [/QUOTE]
