[QUOTE="Ratsima, post: 1822111, member: 402210"] First Things First: I live in Thailand where the government is increasing its surveilance and censorship of online activity. Over the past few months I've noticed difficulty in connecting to some websites in the US. Safari says it is unable to establish a secure connection to the site. If I switch to a VPN, I connect instantly. Also, I've done some speed tests involving hosts in the US and find that with the VPN throughput is often twice what it is without the VPN. Oddly, one of the sites to which I have difficulty connecting is the GoPro site. What the heck? What would prevent Safari from making a security connection to a site in the US? [/QUOTE]
