Get Faster, Safer Internet with Winston Privacy
Winston PrivacyLet’s not kid ourselves: we’re all here because we love the internet. We love it so much that we spend pretty much all of our time here — which is fine, because the internet is rad. But parts of it are less rad, like location tracking or having your data harvested and sold to corporations for profit. If only there was an internet without those things, right? Well, fortunately, there is. This internet filter from Winston Privacy delivers faster browsing, fewer ads and safer, more private internet on every device in your home — all you have to do is plug it in. Plus, it’s on sale right now for $20 off. But if you use the code GEAR50 at checkout, Gear Patrol readers can take an extra $30 off and get free shipping.
