GammaGlobulin Posted Wednesday at 02:03 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 02:03 AM Hi Folks, Beginning this July, I will need the best VPN for China. In the past, quite some time ago, I used ExpressVPN, and it worked fairly well in SiChuan, but much better in GuangDong. Now, I need the best VPN for ChengDu. Has ExpressVPN gotten any better during the past few years? Of course, I realize that the gov there can turn on, or turn off, usage of VPNs. So, therefore, these days, what might be the best VPN for use in SiChuan which will be good for video conferencing using Google, as well as all things Google. I have no need for anything other than Google products while in China. Thanks for any suggestions. Regards, Gamma Note: As you may know, there are many VPNs available once one enters China, from local agents. But, I wonder if ExpressVPN might still be best. For one thing, you can easily pay be credit card. And, ExpressVPN does provide, or used to provide, rather good support from it's support center, in English or Chinese, too, I think. Well, maybe not Chinese, so much. If you do not know what I am referring to: https://www.expressvpn.com/ Note2: Years ago, I got good support. But, I have not used a VPN, for any reason, for quite a number of years. Therefore, anyone here able to report about either this VPN provider or any better alternative?

Yes. Good point. I know the issues involved, fairly well. But, I have not used a VPN in China for quite some time. Perhaps, and I really do not know.... VPNs, such as ExpressVPN, based outside China....might not work well. I have ZERO personal experience.....during the past 7 years, having been outside China since that time.

KhunHeineken Posted Wednesday at 08:40 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:40 PM You might want to do some due diligence on Express VPN. https://www.cnet.com/tech/services-and-software/expressvpn-cio-among-three-facing-1-6-million-doj-fine-project-raven/ They lost a lot of customers over this, and I would never trust the company. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
