MEGGEN, SWITZERLAND--(Marketwired - Jul 16, 2015) - Golden Frog, a company that fights for online privacy and an open Internet, announced today that it has added its first server locations in the Middle East. Three VyprVPN servers have been installed in Manama, Bahrain; Doha, Qatar; and Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. An additional location will soon be added in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
These new server locations will offer a nearby connection point for Internet users in the Middle East who are looking to break out of the region's restrictive Internet censorship. Many ISPs in the region block content, including politically and culturally sensitive materials. In some areas popular VoIP services like Skype are also banned.
"The struggle for Internet freedom continues to be a major issue in the Middle East," said Sunday Yokubaitis, president of Golden Frog. "With the addition of several Middle East server locations, VyprVPN will open up access to new information and lift the curtain of censorship that has plagued the region for so long."
VyprVPN customers now have access to more than 700 servers in 50+ locations across North America, South America, Europe, Asia and Oceania. They get unlimited bandwidth and connection speeds and are able to switch between servers worldwide without restrictions. Each location is compatible with all VPN protocols: PPTP, L2TP/IPsec, OpenVPN, as well as Golden Frog's proprietary VPN technology, Chameleon. In addition, Golden Frog offers VyprDNS at each VyprVPN server location. VyprDNS is a zero-knowledge DNS service for VyprVPN users that defeats Internet censorship, performs no logging of hostnames and offers superior DNS geolocation.
