It seems that every day that passes, users and companies understand how important privacy is. This week, Cloudflare has announced the launch of WARP, a free VPN for mobile devices that will allow us to surf in complete safety. This is something you want to do by default Purism, implementing a private VPN to its secure smartphones Linux-based. This will be possible thanks to the company's partnership with Private Internet Access.
Private Internet Access (PIA) is one of the worldwide references when it comes to VPN, and it is because it supports VPN technologies such as OpenVPN, PPTP, L2TP / IPsec and SOCKS5. Purism has become the first company to partner with Private Internet Access to offer its default services.
Librem 5, Purism's first smartphone with PIA's VPN
Purism will integrate Private Internet Access VPN services default on your PureOS operating system, a Debian-based system. PureOS also comes installed by default on company computers such as Librem 13 or Librem 15. The first phone to use these services will be on Librem 5, a device that is scheduled to launch in the third quarter of 2019.
But as a user who has been looking for quality VPNs in recent weeks, I have one question: Does this partnership mean that Purism devices will be able to use Private Internet Access VPN services for free? It is something they do not mention in the informative note PIA or Purism, but most likely it is. Otherwise, this society would not make much sense.
For users who want to use Private Internet Access VPN services, its price is just under € 10 a month, € 6 / month under subscription or a little less than € 4 / month if we choose a two-year subscription. What do you think Purism is going to include PIA services on their phones?
