Pornhub launches its own free VPN

By

Pornhub is launching its own VPN service today with free and unlimited bandwidth. The VPN is supposed to help users avoid ISP throttling and geographic limitations. It’s also designed to let users transmit data anonymously without saving or collecting any of that data.
To get started, you download the VPNHUB app on your device and then tap setup. On the iPhone running iOS 11.3.1 that I tested it with, the app prompted me to create a VPN in settings. You might see an error message at first, but despite that, the app’s main page, which shows a swirling lock symbol, will whirl a bit and then activate your VPN. Then, to check if the VPN is working, go to a site like WhatisMyIPAddress.com and check your IP address. If it’s working, it should list your location as a generic city and have swapped out your usual IP address.
Pornhub’s VP Corey Price said in a statement to The Verge that incognito browsers don’t offer enough cover from “prying eyes,” especially if users are still browsing on public Wi-Fi networks, so the VPN will provide an added layer of security and privacy.
The VPN service is available on Mac, Windows, Android, and iOS. Although the service will be available in many countries, it’s going to be banned from countries the US doesn’t do business with, including Myanmar, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria. Pornhub also notes that it’s “had reports that our VPN might be blocked in” countries like Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and China.

There’s also a premium option available called VPNhub Premium, which costs $12.99 per month in exchange for no ads and supposedly faster connections. There’s a free 7-day trial available, and you’ll be able to choose from a range of countries and locations like Australia, Brazil, Canada, Japan, Singapore, the UK, and major US cities. Free users only have access to their nearest server.
The website recently launched s support for cryptocurrency, which allows users to easily make anonymous payments to the site.

WhatsApp's chief business officer Neeraj Arora quits

By
  Neerja Arora ,  WhatsApp ’s chief business officer, is the latest Facebook executive to step down the facebook cluster of companies in the last few months. In a Facebook post , Arora said he is “going to be taking some time off to recharge and spend time with family,” and thanked WhatsApp co-founders Jan Koum and Brian Acton.  Koum stepped down as WhatsApp CEO earlier this year over disagreements with Facebook executives over privacy and encryption. Acton had left WhatsApp a year ago, in September 2017, to start his own non-profit. However, a few months later, he urged people to #deletefacebook on his Twitter account. The co-founders’ departure reportedly boiled down to disagreements over the monetization options for WhatsApp which has been anti-ads since the beginning. It is time. #deletefacebook — Brian Acton (@brianacton) March 20, 2018 Arora had been with WhatsApp since 2011, when the company was just two years old. He was with the...

Musk's new pay deal could make him the world's richest man—if Tesla succeeds

By
It is the  Elon Musk  of corporate pay deals, a cocksure, all-or-nothing moonshot into history. Little wonder, then, that it is for none other than Elon Musk.  Tesla  Inc. granted the billionaire founder a $2.6 billion award, the largest-ever of its kind, underscoring the company's outsize ambitions and how intimately connected its future success is to Musk. If fully vested over a decade, stock options would net him as much as $55.8 billion. Along the way, nothing would be guaranteed -- zero salary or cash bonuses.  The audacious award outlines a plan for Tesla to become one of the world's biggest companies, which would make Musk perhaps the richest man on the planet in the process, but without as detailed a road map to get there as was provided with his last award. This, too, is very Musk-like -- set big-picture, moonshot end goals, particulars be damned.  "It's breathtaking both in size and in terms of performance required to earn it," Steven Hall...

Camera comparison: Huawei P30 Pro vs S10+, iPhone XS, Pixel 3, Mi 9, Mate 20 Pro

By
Huawei's been bringing us some of the most meaningful camera innovations in smartphones over the past few years, experimenting with monochrome modules, image stacking, and night mode, off the top of our heads. The Huawei P30 Pro is now official and it's got a new trick up its sleeve - a periscope telephoto camera. We've had the chances to review the P30 Pro and you can read all of our findings in the in-depth review here. But the novel camera tech prompted us to do a more in-depth comparison against the other big names on the market. While at it, we figured we shouldn't limit ourselves just to zoomed in shots, because let's face it <br /> - no other phone has a 5x zoom camera. Hence, this shootout. The lineup for this comparison includes the Samsung Galaxy S10+, which comes with an ultra wide camera, and it's wider than the P30 Pro's but lacks autofocus. As is very much the norm (which Huawei aims to break), the Galaxy's telephoto ...
