VPN usage in South Korea and Saudi Arabia
VPN usage in South Korea and Saudi Arabia
I may go for short term work in either South Korea or Saudi for a few months. Does anybody have any idea, how safe it is to use a VPN as a foreigner in these countries? Worse case scenario, can I use a VPN in a Azure VM and scp torrent downloaded files or something?
You're viewing a single thread.
Based on a quick google search vpns are often blocked in Saudi, but it says they are not illegal.
I think they block specific provider so hosting your own should solve the problem.
I think they are legal in Korea since Mullvad hosts vpns in Korea.
Double check on these things but it seems like you are good to go.
No South Korea nodes in Mullvad's server list. Perhaps other providers do? I don't think SK is a popular destination for exit nodes since it has a strong censorship against pornography among others.
There's a selectable node for Korea on Nord and I had no issues with mine while traveling.
Thanks! Your right. I’m thinking of Singapore. My bad.
