Tunnelbear Quick Question

[littlepigboy5]

If I am on a college campus, for example, and I have tunnelbear, Will my browsing be private to the network administrators, or just the normal stuff?  Basically, does the Privacy still apply to the local network, or do you only appear as though you are using a different IP outside of the local network.

no one on the local network can see what your doing.

do you just mean in general or with tunnel bear, because Within about 45 seconds I could be checking what other people are doing lol

all they know is that its going to that server. They don't know where its going from there. They don't know what sites your using.

Perhaps a good question to ask would be: would OP's school CARE if they're using a VPN like TunnelBear?

 

I mean even if they can't see what sites OP is using would they maybe take action based on the use of a VPN?

 

Is it possible using a VPN is against school rules?
