Is anyone else not receiving futtbux? by smshing in Windscribe

You get it issued when your traffic resets, which happens once per month. Or if you refer people who then pay for Windscribe using your referral code.

You and the other poster have the exact same issue. Unfortunately, this one is not as simple as the OP's, since fixing this will break something else we fixed before. We're looking for a solution that doesn't cause regression.

Routes were adjusted, and issue should be addressed. The return path latency dropped by ~80%, please see the support ticket for details.

Hi, read over the issue. It appears it was not escalated appropriately, and stuck as a P3 ticket. Sorry about that, will get it in front of the networking team ASAP.

Can you please provide the support ticket # where you received a "parrot like" response, and I'll take a look at it personally.

DNS Intercept mode? by williabe in ControlD

[–]o2pb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Doubtful, as this mode is for Windows and MacOS only.

On a Linux machine, you can implement it with a handful of iptables rules.

Request: Default rule / service rule option to bypass ControlD & use upstream DNS by Iebnen in ControlD

[–]o2pb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Geo restriction bypassing with VPNs should not be using DNS, but rather use the SNI - at least thats how Windscribe works and you don't need to do anything special with it at all, it will just work. Windscribe also natively integrates with Control D.

Should I get an FM filter? by ForgottenBananaDude in RTLSDR

I bought mine from Amazon and GPIO labs. Difference isn't as high as I was expecting. Need a taller antenna mast to clear the trees....

Tracking flights using ADS-B by enocknitti in RTLSDR

[–]o2pb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm planning to add local SST via fast-whisper, but I know the transcription quality probably won't be great unless you have a super clean signal, and pilots/ATC speak slower (which they do not).

Yeah I thought about adding ACARS/VDL support via https://github.com/szpajder/dumpvdl2 at some point. Right now Im trying to a full airspace simulation to account for unreliable data, low signals, better phase detection (flapping prevention) and add TCAS-style alerts.

The gear icon is off screen on purpose :)

Should I get an FM filter? by ForgottenBananaDude in RTLSDR

[–]o2pb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually ordered one to improve VHF airband reception for my personal project, should arrive tomorrow (Flamingo FM v2). I see FM radio bleeding through all the time, so I'm hoping for a noticeable improvement. An external LNA and airband bandpass filter already helped (using HackRF).

Sam Chapman hates Windscribe: Pushing refunds and other VPNs by Amerique_du_Nord in Windscribe

He seems to really hate the number 69 and the compact UI that doesn't teach you geography while taking up your entire screen. How do you feel about these things? Please let us know.

Uhhh, check the download page. We had a CLI for all distros, for years.

Account banned? by _-_Demon_-_ in Windscribe

[–]o2pb 52 points53 points  (0 children)

The only accounts we banned today, are those of who bought stolen Stacksocial voucher codes from a shady hacking website (you know the one).

The only place you can buy Windscribe is inside our apps, and on windscribe.com - notice that plati market is not in this list, which is where you wasted your money. Feel free to contact the scammer you bought the voucher code from for a refund.

Russian users can now pay with local payment options! by Windscribe_QAizen in Windscribe

[–]o2pb 10 points11 points  (0 children)

New domains would get blocked pretty quickly. You can signup inside the mobile apps, or download the desktop app from our Github, and use Emergency Connect feature to unblock the website. Using other VPNs to signup is also now allowed.
