Question Is there any totally free IP Hiding software ?

[system100m]

I can't get my hands on any totally free IP hiding software for windows (or mac). Is there any known one, that would always work and never expire ?

Have you tried HotSpot Shield?

Not free :/

Nobody is hiding your IP and rerouting/repackaging all your traffic for free forever...

VPN services route/reroute/repackage data, and require tons of bandwidth and CPU power, none of which are free...(hence, the success of so many competing VPN services for a few dollars per month.)

You know, there are many ways nowadays to provide free service for the cost of ads etc. There must be a free solution for this too.

If there are any free full time VPNs with unlimited usage, they sure have kept quiet about their provided services, and do pretty much no advertising... nor has anyone heard of them yet....

Opera has VPN built in. It's slow and bad but free.

This is true. Just open a private window and voila! Free VPN.

If hiding IP is an issue, there ya go, OP! (Good to know!)

That would help for private browsing but not for P2P downloading etc.

Brave also has not only a standard private browsing window but a "super private" mode that employs Tor built-in.

Unfortunately like everything else you get what you pay for. None of the free providers work reliably and they're usually just data-mining. The cheaper services are better but also don't work reliably for unblocking websites, watching movies, etc. Generally the most reliable companies are the more expensive ones.

As for something that never expires I've heard of some companies that offer "Lifetime Subscriptions".

Hope this helps.

Hiding your IP address is like hiding your house number from the postman.

VPN is like getting a box at the UPS store or post office. And paying for it.

Free VPN to work with P2P (to steal movies) - what are you thinking?

Get used to the fact that movies / songs / software cost something.
