Nowadays, Hotspot Shield’s core service holds more than 1,800 servers that stretch across over 80 countries and 115 cities across the globe. Apart from this, this VPN has undergone a couple of shifts in past years which culminated when Hotspot Shield became a part of a new company called Aura, which then merged with Pango Group.
Hotspot Shield has also launched its own unique Hydra protocol, which aims to maximize speed without making compromises on security. A year later, Hotspot Shield was upgraded to include support for iOS and Android. In 2010, Hotspot Shield VPN caught the world's attention when people utilized it to bypass government censorship and openly share information in the middle of Arab Spring protests in Egypt, Tunisia, and Libya. The aim behind was to provide “every person on the planet” with a solution that would keep all their data safe from cybercriminals and snoopers while providing free access to the information from otherwise blocked sites and services.ĪnchorFree is based in Redwood City (California, the USA) with offices in Ukraine and Russia.
It was operated by the same company until 2019.
Hotspot Shield is a virtual private network (VPN) service that was first released in April 2008 for Windows and macOS operating systems by AnchorFree.
