what's up guys chris here and in today's video we're going to talk about three of
the best vpns to use in israel in terms of privacy streaming and speed now one thing that you should
know about israel is that they have strict censorship regulations the military sensor
is authorized to ban any material they think could cause damage to the country's security
it's likely that the government is also involved in online surveillance of citizens israel has been
accused of selling the pegasus spyware program to various countries around the world aside from the
authorities cyber crime is on the rise in israel too the country faces frequent cyber attacks
while vulnerabilities in public networks can put you at risk if you use wi-fi hotspots
to protect your data you need a good vpn that can keep your personal information
safe from prying eyes vpns can also provide you access to local and international content
that might be blocked in your region however it's important to point out that vpns are not equal and
so it can be hard for the average person to find the right one as there are so many to choose from
and so i've gone ahead and rigorously tested more than 30 of the most popular vpns on the market
to find three of the best ones to use in israel keep watching as we take a good look at each one
of all the vpns i tested expressvpn is the best for keeping you anonymous online
it uses high grade aes 256 bid encryption and follows a strict zero logs policy this means that
no identifying information like your ip address and browsing habits gets collected plus expressvpn
is outside the five eyes alliance which is a group of countries that share information about
its citizens the vpn's trusted server technology uses ram only servers instead of writing your
data to a hard drive i felt safe while testing expressvpn knowing my online activities get wiped
clean with every server reboot so your personal information can never be stored and what you do
online remains completely out of reach for third parties i found that my ip address was kept hidden
with dns and ip leak protection and the vpn's kill switch network lock throughout my testing
network lock by the way automatically terminates your connection if the vpn suddenly drops
that said this never happened to me and my vpn connection was always stable with an expresso epn
expressvpn gives you access to a massive network of 3000 servers in 90 countries
including israel and i recorded excellent speeds in my tests this enabled me to
stream local shows like rising star on mako tv without buffering if you don't have a server
preference you can use the quick connect feature to automatically connect you to the fastest server
the vpn has no restrictions on bandwidth or p2p sharing so you can torrent without interruptions i
could easily unblock and use sites like bittorrent and new torrents during testing another great
thing about expressvpn is that it is super easy to set up and use it took me just a few minutes
you can pay for your subscription in various ways including credit card paypal and alipay
you can even pay with bitcoin for an extra layer of anonymity there are native apps for all major
operating systems and you can connect up to five devices simultaneously including routers and smart
tvs it even works on playstation xbox nintendo switch and amazon fire tv or stick i used it on my
ps4 with no hassle whatsoever another great thing about expressvpn is that you can test it for up to
30 days and if you don't like it you can request a full refund i tested the vpn for three weeks
and then cancelled and i got my money back in my bank account three days after asking
customer services for a refund by the way i'll put a special discount link in the video description
below for all three vpns i'm discussing today's video so that you can save some money
nordvpn is a solid choice for a vpn in israel and for many good reasons it boasts a true zero logs
policy which means it holds no data about your sessions traffic or timestamps of any nature
the company operates 5 500 servers in 60 countries including more than a dozen in israel what's
more nor vpn pegs the fastest speeds we've seen it's able to securely access netflix and works
with hulu bbc iplayer and tons of other sites torrenting is allowed and nordvpn uses 256-bit aes
protocol encryption standard by default coupled with a 2048-bit ssl key dns leak protection is
on by default and a single subscription grants access to six devices making it a good option to
share with friends or family this is definitely a good thing considering that nordvpn supports
a wide range of devices and operating systems including windows mac os ios and android devices
now surfshark operates more than 3 000 servers across 60 plus countries including israel as such
it's a strong choice for users looking to access israeli content while abroad all those who simply
want to bypass country-wide internet restrictions surfshark provides generally decent speeds and
works well with major platforms like netflix us as there's no connection limit you're free
to watch on whichever device you prefer security is surf shark's specialty it keeps your traffic
safe from snoopers using 256-bit aes encryption protection against ipv6 dns and webrtc leaks
and a kill switch there's also automatic ad blocking and malware scanning as well as a
no borders feature that specifically is designed for use in countries with strict online censorship
also i love that surf shack didn't log any personally identifiable information
live chat based customer support is available around the clock in case of any issues
like the other vpns on our list surfshark also offers apps for linux ios windows mac os and
android so there you have it three of the best vpns that you can use in israel but before i go
i'd like to share with you a frequently asked question that i get all the time on this topic
first up is using a vpn legal in israel well there are some restrictions on accessing
content in the middle eastern country but the use of vpns in israel is perfectly legal and
is it legal to use torrents in israel well things get a little bit murky here but a reddit forum
suggests authorities turn a blind eye when it comes to penalizing users who indulge in torrents
there have been no documented cases of arrests of people downloading copyright material
in fact in 2013 the israeli parliament debated making torrents completely legal
the bill however has yet to be passed so thank you so much for watching my video and if you are
interested in any of the vpns i've discussed in this video i will put special discount links that
i was able to get for you guys in the description area below so that you can save some money if you
