StarVPN Black Friday discount - Residential IP for digital nomads (alien.top)
 

StarVPN is the preferred VPN for digital nomads because of their speciality in Residential IP VPN - good for corporate laptops when working overseas.

Anyway the code is blackf15 which will give you 15% off.

  • I don't work for StarVPN and I'm not getting anything. Just sharing with the community for black Friday.

Work laptop has location services locked. Is it over for me? in c/digitalnomad@expats.zone

If the laptop is in flight mode and plugged into a router by cable, I don't see how location services would find your location.

But there's a solution to this - test it.

Setup a nomad vpn router. Check your location. I'm sure you can find an app that does it using location services. Next - drive to a friend's house an hour+ away. Run location app. What does it say?

Make sure your wireguard vpn uses either a home router eg Brume 2, or residential ip, eg StarVPN.
