From https://riseup.net/en/vpn: Riseup offers Personal VPN service for censorship circumvention, location anonymization and traffic encryption. To make this possible, it sends all your internet traffic through an encrypted connection to riseup.net, where it then goes out onto the public internet. Unlike most other VPN providers, Riseup does not log your IP address.

i12bretro, Plays the [Hated?] Video Background Music

22 |
23 |
24 |
25 |

This is the surprisingly polarizing background music I use in my tutorial videos. I wrote this about five years ago and could never come up with a fitting melody, but I liked the mellow vibe, so I decided to use it in the background of my videos when I started the channel. I get quite a few comments from viewers liking the tune and many more of them hating it. The truth of it is, I live near an airport and without some kind of background music you'd be able to hear airplanes flying over during my voiceovers. Or I'd have to stop and start recording frequently to wait for the air traffic to clear. Making the voiceovers is already my least favorite part of the video creation process, so I don't want it to take any longer than it already does, so the background music is here to stay. Enjoy!
