Pornhub is known for several side projects beyond its massive database, and now a new VPN platform called VPNhub joins the list. The idea is for users to access content with an extra layer of privacy and avoid any geo-blocking in the process. The good news is that all those interested can try VPNhub for free… as long as they do it from a mobile device.
The last time we talked about Pornhub, the site was giving away premium accounts to those living in places with porn names. They also shared some details about how their algorithm works, and what kind of data it records from each session. However, today they seem concerned about the privacy of their users. Watching adult content is something very personal, and from a certain point of view, visitors want to feel safe. History tells us that sites like Pornhub are not a shining example in computer security, but it's not bad that they try to improve the situation. What do they offer? Nothing less than a VPN service, named VPNhub.
VPNhub: Free for Mobile Users
Pornhub has stated that VPNhub will have 1,000 servers in 15 different countries, will not keep any kind of logs, and will not be exclusive to the site; users can use it in any case. Initial access to VPNhub is free (includes advertising), with no data limit, but its restrictions involve the final availability of servers and the platform. VPNhub's free tier is only enabled for iOS and Android with the official app. Desktop users (Windows and Mac) need a premium subscription of $13 per month (which of course removes ads and improves speed). Why did Pornhub make such a decision? Its executives said that of the 90 million daily users the portal receives, the vast majority use smartphones and tablets.
Personally, I'm a bit disappointed, but at the same time it makes sense that Pornhub focuses its resources on mobile users and prioritizes their protection. I just hope that VPNhub doesn't make any mistakes, and that its connections are really private. Want to try it? All you have to do is go to the official store of your mobile operating system (links on the official site below) and download a copy from there. The rest is simply opening the app, and tapping the lock icon.
