dinaafifi lol rule 101 of VPN talk, is you DON'T mention VPN's on public forums. They're all monitored by the authorities. So now you can expect yours to be blocked. Well done.:cool:

Hi I'm relocating to Abu Dhabi next summer and was wondering if it's best to get a VPN before or after I get to the UAE? Depends. Some are blocked here so impossible to install once you are here, many others aren't.

the devil is in the detail..... So you automatically assume people are doing dodgy things? How wrong you are. Classic example - itunes! There is NOTHING worth having on the UAE site, which is why most people have account in other countries. But to top up your credit, you have to do it using a card from that country, or use top ups, but you have to be connected to servers in the country where your account is held. Nothing dodge about that. People stream tv shows on things like iplayer from the UK - again, perfectly fine. Because let's face it, tv here is rubbish and expensive, which is why many choose to stream and download shows from home. <em>edited by FairyDust on 12/03/2015</em>

Basically, reading between the lines - they don't care, so long as you're not doing anything illegal with it. That is also how I read it

The article must be talking about Virtual Public Network....... Yes the article is talking about [i'>"VPN services used in the UAE by some private individuals to access VoIP services and access some of the blocked websites."[/i'>

IF I've ever used a VPN its only to catch up with Eastenders! I probably deserve to be locked up for that alone. :lol:

Interesting reading http://www.emirates247.com/business/technology/vpn-use-punishable-under-law-dubai-police-2015-03-12-1.583914 Maybe that is why is has been slow recently, installing new special systems perhaps!
