“Finding a Trustworthy VPN
(Virtual Private Network)
Part 2”

Presented by Jim Macak,
Double Click President

A VPN (Virtual Private Network) provides an encrypted “tunnel” through which a user connects to the Internet, providing a degree of security and privacy. A few months ago, Jim began posting a series of messages to the Double Click Talk email discussion list about his experiences when he was going through the process of researching and choosing a VPN for his own use.

At the May Double Click meeting, Jim began a review of his journey towards finding a trustworthy VPN and offered some tips on how you can find a VPN that is suitable for you. His presentation will be concluded at the June meeting, culminating with a review of Mullvad VPN, the VPN service that he chose upon finishing his search for a trustworthy VPN.

Double Click Beginner’s Sessions

Every Double Click monthly Main Meeting starts with a presentation tailored especially for “beginners.” The session hosts alternate between Steve Parker and Michael Yanikowski. Steve, the long-standing Beginner’s Group Coordinator, demonstrates macOS X tips and basic techniques. Michael, an avid user of Apple mobile devices, presents basic information about iPhones, iPads and Apple Watches.

Alternating on a monthly basis, their presentations are a popular feature of the first part of every Double Click Main Meeting. New and experienced users are always sure to learn a tip or three from Steve and Michael. (If you have a tip, bring yours along to share!)
