- Meshnet Feature for Personal Encrypted Networks: NordVPN offers a unique feature called Meshnet, which allows users to connect their devices directly and securely over the internet. This means you can create your own private, encrypted network for activities like gaming, file sharing, or remote access to your home devices from anywhere in the world.
- RAM-Only Servers for Enhanced Security: Unlike many VPN providers, NordVPN uses RAM-only (diskless) servers. Since these servers run entirely on volatile memory, all data is wiped with every reboot. This ensures that no user data is stored long-term, significantly reducing the risk of data breaches and enhancing overall security.
- Servers in a Former Military Bunker: Some of NordVPN's servers are housed in a former military bunker located deep underground. This unique location provides an extra layer of physical security against natural disasters and unauthorized access, ensuring that the servers are protected in all circumstances.
- NordLynx Protocol with Double NAT Technology: NordVPN developed its own VPN protocol called NordLynx, built around the ultra-fast WireGuard protocol. What sets NordLynx apart is its implementation of a double Network Address Translation (NAT) system, which enhances user privacy without sacrificing speed. This innovative approach solves the potential privacy issues inherent in the standard WireGuard protocol.
- Dark Web Monitor Feature: NordVPN includes a feature known as Dark Web Monitor. This tool actively scans dark web sites and forums for credentials associated with your email address. If it detects that your information has been compromised or appears in any data breaches, it promptly alerts you so you can take necessary actions to protect your accounts.
From the copy of the House and Senate Democratic bill passed by a vote of 232-190 today.
The US House of Representatives just passed the Save the Internet Act of 2019 on a vote of 232-190. The bill will now be in the hands of the Senate, where Republican leaders have already warned it is “dead on arrival.” The other roadblock facing the bill is President Trump. Ella Nilsen reporting in Vox: “Trump has said he will veto the bill should it make it to his desk. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell called the bill ‘dead on arrival in the Senate’ and will likely decline to bring the legislation up for a vote as a result.”
— The bill Democrats passed in the House today, the “Save the Internet Act of 2019,” is a three-page long effort to undo the FCC’s 2018 repeal of net neutrality rules. It also aims to embed the rules into law, making it difficult for a future FCC chair to undo them.
— “This bill should not and will not become law,” says Ajit Pai, the chairman of the FCC, in a statement after the bill’s passage today. “This legislation is a big-government solution in search of a problem. The Internet is free and open, while faster broadband is being deployed across America.”
