Virtual Private Network.

What is VPN? How It Works, Types of VPN (kaspersky.com)

Using the technology you can route your network traffic through a different country, encoded, so nothing can be seen (supposedly, bar security services I expect) what's in there in your own country and censor it.

If I see a video that has been censored by my internet provider, I route my VPN through Singapore. It's usually the best chance tor viewing the content.

I can route through Israel, but Moscow and Russia in general are no longer on the Menu. My VPN is provided by Namecheap based in Arizona, USA. , their technical staff are all located in Russia, but the company no longer provides services to Russian citizens or Russian Businesses.

It's a strange world.



Israel's Google news headlines for today... The Shekel stays firm in spite of aggressive rate hike. Gold weakens.

ref coal.

I wonder who these rascals are, manipulating the price of coal upwards in our time of need?

I'm OK Jack, as my energy rates are fixed until next summer.

Will have to see what the big picture looks like then.

Of course energy prices are in everything because of transport and utility bills.

Should speculators be banned from operating for the duration of the current emergency?

Sounds like a "green" thing to do. Planet green, not "green with envy" mind you. -g-
