A Word From Our Sponsor
Do you want to be able to stream Hulu or BBC iPlayer, even though you’re not currently in America or the UK? Do you have some reason for wanting people who try to look at your internet connection to see not that you’re in New Zealand, but instead that you’re on some anonymous IP address in Canada, Sweden, France, England, America, or Russia? Do you just generally want to have your anonymity protected on the internet, maybe because your government has recently passed some sort of stupid law that requires people to know your actual IP address? Well, tell them to mind their own business, while you mind yours and go to discourse.co.nz/vpn and sign up. The service is provided by PureVPN, and it’s surprisingly inexpensive (and works perfectly from New Zealand).
