TunnelBear
TunnelBear (also known as the TunnelBear VPN) is a virtual private network (VPN) developed by TunnelBear Inc. The TunnelBear app is currently available on Android, Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and iOS. There is also a Google Chrome extension,[1] and Linux distros can be configured to use TunnelBear[2]. TunnelBear, like other VPNs, has the ability to bypass content blocking in most countries.[3] TunnelBear allows the user to appear in one of 20 different countries (including Ireland, America, Sweden, and Italy), as well as to connect to the closest tunnel. The desktop client uses AES-256 encryption while the extension uses AES 128-bit encryption.[4] When connected, the user's actual IP address will not be visible to the websites visited.[5]

While we aren’t quite ready to build a full application for Linux, we are now offering settings and instructions for manual configuration of a connection to the TunnelBear network (for Giant and Grizzly TunnelBears). We’ve successfully tested these settings on new installs of Mint and Ubuntu in the office. We want to send a big thank you to the TunnelBear Science Division Volunteers (our Beta group) who helped test these settings on half a dozen other Linux distributions.“
