How my IP address affect different services? -

You've probably heard the term IP address before, but you are probably not fully aware of all the ways it is used. Or abused by various entities. Or how you can turn an IP address to your own advantage by taking control of who gets to use it.

An Internet Protocol (IP) is a numerical label assigned to each device (eg, computer, printer) participating in a computer network using the Internet Protocol for communication. An IP address serves two principal functions: host or network interface identification and location addressing. Its role has been characterized as follows: "A name indicates what we seek. An address indicates where it is. A route indicates how to get there. "

When you visit a website, the site knows your IP address. When you send email or sign up for something online or use an Internet-based service, the site knows your address IP. your IP address is important for many sites for many reasons. the search engines want to know your IP address so they can serve the local options and local ads and appear in the language (English or Chinese, etc.) associated with the IP address retailers want to know your IP address for security reasons

Various online vendors -.. Such as e-commerce sites, ad networks and retargeting services - want to know your IP address, because they can sell products based on the specific Web site or to your country or browsing history in some cases, the company may sell products or downloads that may be subject. specific laws in this country. For example, copyrighted content downloads can fall under specific regulations with a particular country and any service that sells this content.

I came across a recent post on the forum asking the question and thought the answer would be helpful to my readers: "I have Netflix Canada, but it does not have all the shows that Netflix USA has. 1. Someone said Hotspot Shield would be to believe that I have an IP address of the computer United States (IPS? ISP?). Can anyone give a definitive answer on this? 2. How safe Hotspot Shield and would it work? "

So, to answer the first question, yes, Hotspot Shield, when installed on a PC, laptop, Mac or mobile device will use US-based IP address is in the performance. (If you have the paid version of the service, you can also choose IPs other countries.) in response to the second question, yes, Hotspot Shield is safe regarding the protection of your data as it moves on the Hotspot Shield VPN. And "would it work" ... well, I do not see why it would not work. Whether you want to use it in the way the questioner proposes to you. Keep in mind that the company may have a good reason to place this first restriction.
