Cyber Ghost VPN not working for BBC iPlayer?

I downloaded the Cyberghost free VPN. It seems to be working fine - I'm in Australia and I change the location to show UK. Yet when I go to the BBC iPlayer website it still says I am not in the UK....why isn't it working?

Answer:

Where is the Cyber Ghost proxy server located?

A VPN on its own does not change or hide your IP address. A Proxy Server is what does that. Looking at the Cyber Ghost website makes me suspect they are not based in the UK. Wherever their proxy servers are based will be the country where they appear to be to the BBC.

Accessing BBC iPlayer from Australia is probably a breach of the BBC's licence conditions and it could actually be illegal.

Forget about a VPN, and see if you can find a UK proxy server. Be warned, however, that many large organisations know about proxy servers and block those as well. This could be the problem and it does not matter whether you connect to the proxy using a VPN or not. The VPN on secures the connection between you and the proxy server from anyone who might be eavesdropping.

I hope this helps.

Howto make a purchase online safety?

ASK:

Is it safer to make a purchase online using a VPN, or is it safer to just use a different computer?

If you were purchasing something from an online store like eBay that you could get in trouble for ordering, would it be safer to order it through a VPN on your own device or to just use a different computer ?

 

Answer:

When you make online purchases they still require parts of your real information (e-mail for order confirmations and/or receipts, tracking numbers, address for getting it shipped to you and for billing purposes, and a bank account or credit/check card number to make the payment [usually that’s the case, but if they support other forms of payment then maybe the address would be tied into it especially where checks and money orders are concerned. Not sure about Bitcoin since I never have enough to try it on a legitimate purchase]). You could create a throwaway e-mail address and you could use a PO box or have it delivered elsewhere, but that’s a whole lot of effort to just to stay “anonymous”.

Answer2:
