Russia has ended peace in Europe by invading Ukraine. We live in a world of voice-activated home machine-learning enhanced smart assistants, dancing yummy mummies on TikTok and people you drink with running their own Twitch shows and yet tanks are crossing the border.
Cyberwarfare is part of the assault with media reporting Wiper and DDOS attacks. The Ukraine government has said the cyber-attacks are “on a completely different level”.
Atlas notes that with a VPN, individuals can hide their IP addresses, making it hard for hackers to locate and target them. However, once found people can’t join the VPN to shrug off the attack.
You can email Atlas VPN to get a premium subscription and protection if you’re a journalist. The details of the offer are online, VPNs do help, but there’s an eyebrow arching choice of language in the offer. To claim this 1-year freebie; you email [email protected]. PR? Is this a PR stunt?
Who wants to use people dying, families fleeing in terror and the outbreak of war to sell a software subscription?
Maybe Altas VPN’s PR department are offering their time while the techies are busy fighting the cyber-attacks, or perhaps it’s a heartfelt offer. This blogger just could be too cynical about the bad PR that comes with PR.
Atlas say;
As we stand for freedom online and beyond, we wish to help journalists who risk their safety to provide the most accurate information to the public. Therefore, Atlas VPN will hand out Premium VPN subscriptions to journalists in Ukraine until the crisis is over.
This way, media representatives can carry out their investigations online and share their findings while being protected by military-grade encryption, which will completely hide their online activities.
Note: Ironically, the affiliate software Geek Native uses will automatically turn links to Atlas VPN affiliate links if the company is live in the system when you load this page. I can’t control the relationship between the two companies. Welcome to the future!
