Overall, while there are some things that could be ironed out, Blockless is a well rounded service. Though a number of VPNs do this, as far as we're aware they are the only one implementing it for their SmartDNS connection. Blockless also offers an Ad Blocker service through their DNS set-up so you do not need to worry about all those annoying advertisement lurking around on website.
Their support was great at filling in this gap and told us that the only thing they log is connection errors. Unfortunately, while clear on collection and use of information through their website, it does not mention any information with regards to logging through their service. Their Privacy Policy and Terms of Use are clearly displayed on the website. The settings they use for this PPTP connection also means that it is not encrypted in any way.It uses a PPTP connection, which as we have mentioned numerous times before, is not very secure.The reason for this opinion is as follows: They also have a service called SmartVPN, but we believe this is wording to be slightly misleading as it is not a private network in reality. Their SmartDNS does not provide any security what-so-ever but this means you can have the best streaming speeds possible. Since Blockless is aimed at providing high end streaming and uses SmartDNS technology, it does not provide much in terms of security but it understands this and makes no claims on this - which is great. They allow 1 IP to be used for the SmartDNS service and 1 connection to be used for their SmartVPN. While no Asian or African connections, these locations were clearly well thought out and are the countries where major streaming services are based and available from. The Blockless service allows streaming from 17 different countries. Luckily for Blockless, their service hasn't been blocked by Hulu yet (like with many other providers) and if you're looking for a VPN for Netflix, Pandora, etc this is a good choice. The SmartVPN service (which they recommend when you're on the go) helps bypass the above mentioned problems, but unfortunately, it doesn't always work - though the issues seem to be reserved for BBC iPlayer. It provides a great service if you wish to be constantly connected to a streaming service, though (like most other SmartDNS) it can be a bit of a nuisance if you wish to keep changing back to your standard internet settings and properties.
They provide well rounded support and set-up for this and as shown below there is virtually no speed loss. Canada based Blockless bases it's main operation around it's SmartDNS service, so we will discuss this first.
