Windscribe
VPN service that's fast, reliable, & effective.
Windscribe is a commercial VPN service that masks a user's IP address, encrypts network traffic, and blocks ads, trackers, malware, and unwanted websites at the network level. It connects through physical servers in more than 69 countries and 135 cities, and is designed for use in heavily censored environments as well as for everyday privacy, remote access, and accessing content from other regions. The company describes itself as self-funded and open source, with apps published openly and a transparency report covering its operations.
The service includes R.O.B.E.R.T., a server-side blocker for IPs and domains, and browser extensions for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge that block ads, rotate the user agent, and spoof timezone, language, and GPS location. Connection options include WireGuard, IKEv2, OpenVPN, Stealth, and WStunnel across multiple ports, with config generators for OpenVPN, IKEv2, and WireGuard. Additional capabilities include split tunneling, port forwarding, static IPs, double hop, a firewall that blocks leaks, MAC spoofing, proxy gateway, secure hotspot, split DNS, and IPv6 routing. Apps are available for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, Fire TV, and other platforms, with unlimited device connections on one account.
Windscribe offers a free plan with a monthly data allowance, a monthly Pro plan, a yearly Pro plan, and a Build A Plan option that charges per selected location and adds data per location. Team accounts with centralized billing are available through ScribeForce. Payment methods include credit card, PayPal, cryptocurrency, and local payment options.
