Thats why everyone needs a VPN to change their IPs. Many here are constantly on VPN.

They still wo not get it, hence someone is still quoting me on this VPN talk, me wan go sleep soon!

CamusMidas:
Yea, I believe it is better we dismiss it. You are having your conversation in real time by just doing a lazy Google search and picking the first article that is in line with your biases.

India went from 200 million active users to a mere 20 million, is that normal? Show me an article that shows that those people could access it by just using VPN. And you went ahead to mention Thailand, what's my business with Thailand.

The discussion is simple, VPN is not some almighty saviour to the citizens of any country that really want to ban an app. 90% reduction is no joke.

Why do you think everybody is speaking up if VPN is all.

the main VPNs are not free, the free ones are not all that,Like I said b4 I don't think you know how powerful VPNs are, these are what hackers use hene they don't get traced!

CamusMidas:
You can't recognise a simple sarcastic comment and you want me to continue this conversation with you.

That was my own way of dismissing me from that conversation!

solasoulmusic:
It will affect Nigeria more in the long run where will they make their announcements. Where will they get world leading information from? How will businesses keep their clients informed? How will your banks inform you of service blackouts and respond to your needs …

Lmao Twitter’s office is not even in Nigeria lol and Thank God because by now dem for close am.

The only people it will affect are the people who don’t anticipate and make moves ahead of them I’m talking 3 years ahead

And all the twitter handlers just lost their JOBS

CamusMidas:
Did I mention China anywhere? I gave you a case study with India that COMPLETELY ban Tiktok, instead of you to do some research and understand how that was even possible, you are busy mentioning China.

who told you people in I India don't access tiktok? there are millions of views from India wen it comes to tictok

Image result for numbers of tiktok users in india 2021
20 million
TikTok has done particularly well with growing its Asian followers. The app is downloaded more than 10 million times by the people in Thailand alone. And in India, there are now more than 20 million active users of the app.16 Feb 2021

CamusMidas:
No.

ok I recon U google it b4 you comment further

CamusMidas:
You are masking it from the website you are visiting (when you are prohibited from visiting it in your country), you are not masking it to your network provider.

yo are masking it from your network provider hence private network,a website is not part of a network, only ISPs are classed as networks, ie Glo and MTN.
you guys need to know the difference between A network ISP,A website and an APP.

baralatie:
Because that is the root cause of the problem between Nigerian and twitter!

I pass!

Harbeeorlar:
Simple, it was not reported. Buhari's tweet was deleted because it was reported by thousands of people.

That is the beginning and the end of the matter

baralatie:
Ipob was and is a threat to a national security and twitter took sides with ipob!

I am not Ipob and I am not Igbo, last time I checked we were talking about twitter, so why divert your talk to ipob.
Stick to the topic Ipob is a threat to Nigeria agreed and the be prescribed as such, So hows twitter a threat to Bigera?

baralatie:
The Nigeria constitution Is clear that it's terms and conditions states that It is against people,person's and medium through which acts against the state will not be accepted.
Twitter actions was considered a national threat

Are U 4 real? do not 4get Twitter did not post anything or say anything, so what was the threat? pls enlighten me!

DFOmobolla:
You are able to browse nairaland because of your service provider ( mtn, glo ).
This companies are registered under the government, if FG decides to ban nairaland they simply instructe 'this providers' to flag your ip whenever you try to log on nairaland and block you from doing so. I think.

if U are on VPN how can they trace ur Ip when it is variable
Plus U guys 4get twitter does not originate from here

baralatie:
Trump was After he lost his election!

the reason is simple, apart from personal vendetta,, Twitter and Facebook pose no national threat and there was no law to back him shutting them down, but the law supports twitter and face book

CamusMidas:
And your network provider won't know your location right?

It is completely ban in India, go and read more about it. Even with VPN you can't access it in India.

Do You know what VPN means?

CamusMidas:
Tiktok is completely block in India, they pick up location from your network provider.

If they really want to implement the suspension, all this your VPN talk na wash.

You are a learner, no one sensors the internet more than china,all social network is blocked including WhatsApp in CHina still, they are using all social network!

GeneralPula:
Maybe on browsers with a vpn.

But not the App..

yeah

Tobsam237:
Guy if Trump got time, they would all regret their decisions.... E was on his way out when that happened...

Buhari case is diff...

ahah wetin trump go do? don't 4get Trump was elected and holds a public office,he is just like any m an on the street to Twiter.

Tobsam237:
On this, we can all agree Twitter fvked up... You don't have to like or hate Buhari to know they fvked up BIG TIME... You don't mess with a sitting president.... with 2 years to election... and except no consequences...

They just lost over 10million active subscribers... It will affect their stocks... it will affect their ads market in Africa...

Just listen to yourself, them ban trump nah PMB you dey talk about

CamusMidas:
You know that tik tok is ban in India right?

Y'all be shouting VPN with zero idea on how things really works.

i think its you who have no idea how VPN works,how do you think people in China use Facebook, WhatsApp etc?

Agbegbaorogboye:
The simple reason is because CBN has created a business out of the exchange rate for BDCs.

Wrong answer, our Economy is a sorry state

Agbegbaorogboye:
With BDCs, what we should have is an open market where BDCs source for the hard currencies themselves and sell at a profitable rate. But what happens is totally anomalous.
BDCs get dollars at a fixed rate from CBN and sell at any rate they feel like. Do you know you until recently, an individual can't get dollars directly from banks while BDCs can? As at 2015, Buhari banned sale of dollars to a large contingent of people including students!! Yet BDCs were getting dollars at 199 and selling at whatever price they felt. This is the roundtripping that SLS was talking about which drew the ire of the govt. A lot of people connected to govt made mad money from that scheme then. It's a major reason the naira was on a free fall during the first three years of this govt.

with ur statement, now explain why the Naira is N703 to point this morning

WriterNig:
Following the confirmation of his summer exit, it was revealed that Aguero had bought watches worth over
£90,000 made by either Tag Heuer or Hublot for every single member of City's staff, as a token of his gratitude.

All of the watches were engraved with the words “Gracias! Kun Aguero.”

He also raffled off his Range Rover Evoque, which cost in the region of £56,000 (N29 million).

The lucky raffle winner was one of City's kit men, which Aguero was said to be delighted with.

In the video Aguero hands over the keys to his Range Rover while the car is parked up and ready to be whisked away.

The kit man was clearly overwhelmed by the gesture and gave Aguero a kiss on the cheek before joining him in a warm embrace.

It's a thoroughly heart-warming moment that's sure to hit you right in the feels.

Offshore Worker Returns To Find Cucumber In Girlfriend’s Cupboard, Landlady Post Video On Social Media

A Nigerian offshore worker returned to find a huge cucumber hidden in his girlfriend’s cupboard after spending two weeks at work.

The landlady of the apartment that the lovers live in made good her threat by sharing the video of the incident on social media.

According to the distraught boyfriend, he came back from work to discover the huge cucumber wrapped inside a cond*m.

He told the landlady that he had caught the lady with a vibrator before but she denied doing anything with it.

He wondered if that was how she wants to be satisfying herself while always complaining that he does not.

She kept insisting that she doesn’t use the cucumber for anything despite the glaring evidence of cond*m on it.

This guy need to return to the villgae,how does that constitute a problem? he rather her have another man?

The latest farmers. Useless league

Seriously? it is THE best league

Chai...... Diaris God O..........

RalphJean:
I too have the exact same opinion.
And that is the reason why ( as a law abiding citizen), i formally notified the authorities that I will not pay. And the authorities issued me an exempt.

Bottom line:
If you are watching, but not paying. And your ‘solution’ is to slam the door on the faces of the enforcement agents, you are a criminal.

No be me talk am. That is the law. It is a criminal offence to be watching and not paying.

BBC ke, wetin dem get wey I wan watch? I don't even watch normal TV I watch on demand

justwise:
You will think that this is common sense? Not to some individuals here.

true

Lexusgs430:
The person liking this post...... Thank you ó......

If you're contemplating buying a Legend........ Road fund licence aka road tax.... Is now £630 a year.........

and mine nah £20,

justwise:
I have problem with tv license and I don’t think one should pay it if you don’t watch BBC programs.

BBC should go commercial to generate revenue just as other channels.

I will not pay for something I don’t use, if I have a skybox and I pay my monthly subscription why should I also pay BBC because I watch sky programs?

Do not allow them into your house simple !

Their warning letters mean nothing, they end up in bin.

I have this Opinion, to, why should we pay TV licence when they are craaaap.They should competit like every other Tv stations out there.

RalphJean:
If they turn out to be licensing officers, I will let them in and offer them a cuppa.
It’s one of three things:

1. I have up to date TV licence payment
Or
2. I have a valid, and legal TV licence exemption
Or
3. I am watching live TV without paying. Which is illegal.

Those are the only 3 ‘valid’ options.

Justwise: I will advice that you be consistent. Anytime someone on the student thread asks question, or suggests to want to cheat the system (albeit stylishly), you stick to the rules, and sometimes even clamp down on them. Which I think is the right thing to do.

But here you are, preaching door closing and refusing entry when you could use that energy to encourage members here to either pay the licence fee, or apply for an exemption.

#Consistency
