Hi people, I’ve recently made some researchs about VPNs because I really care about my privacy (I think we should all) and I’ve seen lots of reviews about it. I’ve decided to give a try to NordVPN but I don’t really understand the software… First and foremost, I’ve watched the “tutorial” on the website and everything’s ok but…
Basically, we just double click to launch the software, we choose either the country we want or which server we want to be located and then we start the connection. But what about after that? Ok, the software are saying you’re using another IP, but some websites are still locating me to my current country and that is something I don’t want at all. And it is still something that I don’t understand. Let’s imagine, I’m saying, with NordVPN, I want to be in the United States. Why is blabla.com (for the example) saying that I’m still on my country? Whi is Youtube still aware that I’m not from there and still proposing me videos of my own country?
Basically my question is : except from the IP, how do I really know NordVPN is really active? Because right now, I feel it isn’t.
Thanks for the help!
