Maintaining your privacy online is nearly impossible these days. Did you know that not even a private internet browser enables you to surf the web without a trace? It’s true—from general browsing history to specific shopping sites, we’re constantly (and quite creepily) being tracked online all the time.
Good news: there’s a way to reduce your exposure. Go incognito with the IPVanish VPN: 1-Yr Subscription, now available for an additional 40% off the sale price with coupon code CMSAVE40. This virtual private network service ensures your everyday internet activity remains private and secure, from internet searches and video streaming to messaging and file-sharing activity.
Basically, all of your online traffic will go through the VPN’s encrypted tunnel, which conceals your identifying IP address. IPVanish protects you from snoops while you’re on public Wi-Fi, plus prevents ISPs from interfering with your internet connection. The company won’t track you, either; IPVanish doesn’t record your activity (no logs or automatic diagnostics here).
Looking at the technical side of things, this VPN service spans 40,000+ IPs on 1,600+ VPN servers in over 75 locations for unparalleled speed. In fact, Forbes calls IPVanish “one of the faster VPN services [we] have reviewed.” This is also one of the preferred VPNs for newbies. CNET calls it "fun, fast and flexible. We recommend IPVanish as a configurable choice for users who are new to VPNs."
This one-year subscription includes unlimited devices, so the whole family can log on with peace of mind. Thanks to user-friendly apps, you can keep your web activity under wraps on all your devices, including macOS, Windows, iOS, and Android Kitkat. Access websites, media, and more without restrictions knowing your privacy is protected.
The IPVanish VPN: 1-Yr Subscription normally costs $143 at full price, but you can get it on sale for $17.40, or 87% off with code CMSAVE40.
President Donald Trump has fired one of two Democratic members of the U.S. Surface Transportation Board to break a 2-2 tie ahead of the board considering the largest railroad merger ever proposed.
Ford is recalling more than 355,000 of its pickup trucks across the U.S. because of an instrument panel display failure that’s resulted in critical information, like warning lights and vehicle speed, not showing up on the dashboard.
The Rev. Al Sharpton is set to lead a protest march on Wall Street to urge corporate America to resist the Trump administration’s campaign to roll back diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives. The New York civil rights leader will join clergy, labor and community leaders Thursday in a demonstration through Manhattan’s Financial District that’s timed with the anniversary of the Civil Rights-era March on Washington in 1963. Sharpton called DEI the “civil rights fight of our generation." He and other Black leaders have called for boycotting American retailers that scaled backed policies and programs aimed at bolstering diversity and reducing discrimination in their ranks.
President Donald Trump's administration last month awarded a $1.2 billion contract to build and operate what's expected to become the nation’s largest immigration detention complex to a tiny Virginia firm with no experience running correction facilities.
Chipmaker Nvidia is poised to release a quarterly report that could provide a better sense of whether the stock market has been riding an overhyped artificial intelligence bubble or is being propelled by a technological boom that’s still gathering momentum.
Cracker Barrel said late Tuesday it’s returning to its old logo after critics — including President Donald Trump — protested the company’s plan to modernize.
Low-value imports are losing their duty-free status in the U.S. this week as part of President Donald Trump's agenda for making the nation less dependent on foreign goods. A widely used customs exemption for international shipments worth $800 or less is set to end starting on Friday. Trump already ended the “de minimis” rule for inexpensive items sent from China and Hong Kong, but having to pay import taxes on small parcels from everywhere else likely will be a big change for some small businesses and online shoppers. Purchases that previously entered the U.S. without needing to clear customs will be subject to the origin country’s tariff rate, which can range from 10% to 50%.
Southwest Airlines will soon require plus-size travelers to pay for an extra seat in advance if they can't fit within the armrests of one seat. This change is part of several updates the airline is making. The new rule starts on Jan. 27, the same day Southwest begins assigning seats. Currently, plus-size passengers can pay for an extra seat in advance and later get a refund, or request a free extra seat at the airport. Under the new policy, refunds are still possible but not guaranteed. Southwest said in a statement it is updating policies to prepare for assigned seating next year.
