Freedome is a reliable, if a bit basic, VPN that’s remarkably easy-to-use, flexible, cross-platform and lightweight. With 27 servers in 21 locations, it might not be the largest network, but the speeds are decent, and the bandwidth isn’t limited. It unblocks the streaming services and allows P2P.
Freedome VPN is cross-platform and supports Windows, MacOS, Android, and iOS. Mobile app mirrors the desktop experience in simplicity and usability.
The
first thing that struck me was the stark contrast with many other
providers in the way F-Secure treats your privacy. You get the free
five-day trial without limitations – just download the apps on as many
devices as you wish, and you’re good to go. No email, phone number or
other identifying information is required to get your hands on
experience. Thumbs up!
Usability rocks in Freedome VPN apps. The large blue window with the big Connect button and a few custom tabs are dead-simple to figure out. The locations are listed by region, and you can hide the ones you don’t need. The app instantly defines the optimal server you should use for the best performance based on your location. From there, it’s a matter of clicking Connect. The app doesn’t lag, or glitch and connecting/disconnecting is a breeze.

There’s no bandwidth
cap, and streaming and P2P are allowed, but mind the servers you’re
using. The general rule of thumb is to choose servers in countries
without strict anti-piracy regulations (steer clear of German, French,
Japanese, UK, and US servers for P2P).
Freedome has a nifty tracker-blocking feature that comes with an interactive visual map of trackers the app blocks for you. You can enable logging to get a general idea of how profiling looks in reality. This feature is nice but has little practical value if you ask me..

Privacy
User experience is excellent with F-Secure even in the way they’ve laid out their FAQs, Privacy Policy, and ToS – short, clear and unambiguous.
They
don’t keep logs and can’t link you to the IP address of your browsing
destination. They do keep temporary logs of VPN session duration, the
amount of data, device ID and public IP from where you connect for 90
days to protect the network against abuse. They even highlight potential
issues with the Track Mapper that, when enabled, logs tracking data to
build the map, and explain the feature is optional and they delete the
data.
Overall, F-Secure
does a great job of explaining its practices in a clear and concise way –
many companies should learn from this approach.
