What do you think of Proton?

seems ok, i guess....

but like i said earlier^

i wouldnt trust any "free" vpn. Privacy is not free.

Becuz now, theres also no legal $ binding for them/fightback for u, to give up ur info.

So if you pay for their email and cloud you could also use their VPN since you're paying for that as well?

if something is free, its free because ur paying for it with ur information.

if that makes sense.

From my limited time here I think I’ve gathered that you are an American who is living in Vietnnam where Pinny allows you to bet legally. Is this a permanent move for you?
I have full residence in Vietnam. Vietnamese Drivers license , Vietnamese residence card and bank accounts along with any documentation one would need.

Good rule of thumb but there are exceptions. Brave browser is FOSS, for example. It's not collecting your info.

Yes, there are certainly exceptions to this rule..

most ppl underrate, how it all starts with ur browser** ... not so much the VPN / ur AV.

I'm a huge advocate of using nothing but Firefox --- Duck duck go, 2nd one.
But firefox with all the right addons config'd properly. u stop tracing at the root.
and ofc a good vpn helps.


i posted all the info. in another thread when some1 was asking for a good anti virus.

Well, 613, the most common way is probably through an agent.

Some of the less common, bigger money, ways aren’t coming out here, bro.

I’m sorry to say that. It would likely violate policies with BMR partnerships, for one. But more importantly, it can risk operations in place.

All good doesn’t matter to me. I’m from Canada so more just curious. I was asking because I’ve always heard Americans wanting to bet on Pinnacle but can’t. I’m sure the method you’re talking about is probably complex.

I thought you were from Canada, but questioned it, so I originally editied my post and took out the part saying to get a good agent.

I think you were running into deposit limit issue if I'm not mistaken. I know regulators don't usually get involved in those things but I can't help but think Ontario has some unspoken restrictions.

Again you are 100% right. When I called the regulator (igaming Ontario) they told me there are no rules on deposit limits. I’ve been going back and forth with them for 4 months and no progress. I told them I want to deposit 300K and he said do 3K over 100 days 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Before my account was forced to be a licensed one I could deposit a lot

Any other province in Canada I could deposit a lot.

I told them I’m gonna drive to Quebec to open up an account to deposit 300K then I’m gonna “move” back to Ontario. They were ok with this…

I don’t get why I’m being punished for living in Ontario lol

$300k? Wow. You're clearly in a league well out of my range.
I hope you have better luck on future plays Tony.

Yes, can be done, but ultimately,

NOT WORTH THE RISK.
