When you come home from work, you probably are tired and want some mindless entertainment. So you turn on the computer and decide to watch some TV or talk to your buddy on Facebook. Horrors! You can’t access Facebook in Vietnam anymore! It’s been banned here in Vietnam by the government and you can’t get on the popular social networking site anymore.
What can you do? If you want access Facebook in Vietnam it’s not going to happen unless you sign up for service with a virtual private network or VPN. Ever since the Vietnamese government began to block Facebook and some other Internet locations like Twitter or My Space, it only works with IP addresses in
other countries like the U.S. or U.K.
Virtual Private Networks get you back on track
If you desire to access Facebook in Vietnam, then you must acquire that US or UK IP address via virtual private network service providers that are available like Hide My Ass, 12vpn or StrongVPN. Any of these will work. A VPN gives you security and safety due to the fact that it has a way to mask your surfing and you are protected by their secure servers. When you subscribe to VPN services from one of these VPN service providers online, you get a private virtual connection between your computer and their computer. This lets your computer have an IP address from the US or other location such as the UK and you can access Facebook in Vietnam.
A VPN is a secure line to that VPN’s servers and gives you a US or UK or other country IP address so you appear to be coming to the Facebook site from those locations and so you can access Facebook in Vietnam through that subscription. Your connection is secure, private and encrypted and the VPN server has protocols in place to protect users.
So, it not only lets you talk to your buddies, it also keeps you safe and secure and you can use it in Vietnam or any other country you travel to all over the world. So, that’s how I access Facebook in Vietnam whenever I want.
The VPN services are not cost free, but range from about $6 to $30 or so a month and that’s not much to pay so you can talk to your friends and access Facebook in Vietnam.
