GB News viewers praise major global brand for backing People's Channel - 'Great news!'

GB News viewers believe the new partnership is a perfect match.

Another wrote: "That is very, very smart marketing...a VPN enables freedom from totalitarian crackdowns on free speech, which is championed by GB News."

The global cybersecurity firm has decided to back us and we'd love it if you backed them.

ExpressVPN has launched a dedicated webpage for GB News viewers to explain how its award-winning service protects you online. Running a VPN on your device keeps the websites you visit and the amount of time you spend hidden. It's designed to reduce tracking by third parties, including advertisers, governments, cybercriminals, and even your broadband supplier.

It's what many believe that Incognito Mode on Google Chrome does — but in reality, it doesn't.

The leading software brand, which is part of global giant Kape Technologies, is so proud to be associated with our bold and fearless journalism that GB News' own Patrick Christys is fronting the campaign.

For a limited time, ExpressVPN starts from just £1.99 a month, one of the best VPN deals around.

Subscribing to ExpressVPN will not only ensure your browsing history is secured with AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) with 256-bit keys – the same encryption standard adopted by the US government, but it will also support GB News' mission as the home of free speech.

Running a VPN uses end-to-end encryption to anonymise your activity, bolstering your privacy, hiding your location, and stopping advertisers, and trackers from keeping tabs on you.

Without this, outsiders can keep a record of the websites that you visit, how frequently you navigate to these sites, and how much time you spend on them. That's very valuable data for snoopers.

If you're concerned about privacy online, you need a VPN.

Just a few years ago, VPNs weren't commonly used outside of the workplace. Companies would insist that VPNs were enabled at all times to avoid anyone being able to snoop on the data transferred.

But with the introduction of the Online Safety Act last summer, which triggered a huge spike in VPN downloads in the UK, not to mention the UK Government's push towards Digital ID cards, Brits are flocking to these secure apps to shield their online activity.

Security experts caution against free VPNs since the cost of running VPN servers across the globe and developing the apps is likely covered by siphoning off your data.

ExpressVPN charges just £1.99-a-month for its Basic subscription tier, the equivalent of 7p per day, which includes unlimited access to its award-winning VPN service, which is available in 105 countries spread across 170+ server locations.

Not only that, but ExpressVPN will bundle its Lite Protection package, which blocks adverts and malicious websites on your devices to keep your browsing both speedy and safe.

ExpressVPN reserves its best deals for those who subscribe to a two-year plan.

That might sound intimidating - especially if you haven't subscribed to a Virtual Private Network (VPN) before - but a no-quibbles 30 day money-back guarantee means you can try out every feature on every device first.

With round-the-clock customer support, you'll be able to talk to someone from any time zone to get a full refund if you're unhappy with the experience on your devices.

Even better, ExpressVPN will bundle four months of extra access at no cost – so you'll be able to encrypt and secure your connection for 28 months without paying any more than a two-year plan.
