![]() ![]() ![]() A VPN is a great way to conceal what you’re up to, sure. The problem? Your university might already have set up mechanisms that prevent you from using VPNs (including services like Tor) on their network. But let’s assume the positive: Your VPN works, you’ve connected up, and you’re ready to start downloading more movies than a film major’s DVD collection.įirst, you’ll need to pay attention whether your VPN is actually working. (In a perfect world, you’ll want to use a VPN app that has a “kill switch” setting that blocks all your network traffic in the event it loses its connection or can’t connect.) If it disconnects, and you don’t realize it, you’ll be sending all your BitTorrent traffic unmasked, and that will surely attract your college’s attention. You’ll still have to deal with your university’s traffic-shaping mechanisms, if any exist. ![]()
