Don't use VPN services.

Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

  • There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.

Read and write to a socket using only Bash
#!/bin/bash

# Bash must have been compiled with this ability: --enable-net-redirections
# The device files below do not actually exist.
# Use /dev/udp for UDP sockets
exec 3<>/dev/tcp/host/port
# Write to the socket as with any file descriptor
echo "Write this to the socket" >&3
