Is this still available? been looking for a VPN for a while now.
I have a question about VPN like surfshark and similar.
Do they give you dedicated proxy IP for you alone? or are you sharing that IP with other customers of the VPN company?
So if I were to be naughty and managed to get IP banned from google and cloudflare, would that affect some other users too?

Yes it's shared. So you gonna get others blocked too. Not much big of a deal as they have multiple IPs in a single location so just reconnect.
On the other hand I see that there are 4 of us now for surfshark. With 4 of us it's gonna come down to ~500 bucks/year with the 28 month deal going on.

Most VPNs including surfshark don't give dedicated IP, and that's not necessarily a bad thing
Having a dedicated IP will make tracking it to a single account/person much more easier defeating the purpose of a VPN
There's also the cost part, IPv4s are pretty expensive nowadays
As for the second part, yes but also consider sharing IP addresses is very common, all mobile connections do that, majority of broadband connections as well (Jio fiber, excitel etc.) using some form of NAT

As for why ISPs can track you using NAT (only under their own CG/NAT) is because they have to keep translation logs (Private to Public IP) as required by law for 5 years

Does anyone have a card which doesn't charge forex or charges a relatively less amount.
Mine charges the usual 3% + 18% gst on these charges.
Tagging the 5-6 (including me) people who said yes till now.
@rehankumar @AliDawar @FXGalvatron @manucitc
Cc: @BondJamesBond have you decided?
Cost is approx ~4550 for 28 months of paid in USD.
Comes down to about 400 if 5 or 320 if 6 people share on a yearly basis.
Total: ~910/person for 28 months.
Anyone wanna take it up? If you have a better card?
P.S. INR payments adds 18% gst so better to pay in USD

That looks to be a best card.
Attaching the offer link: https://surfshark.com/deals?coupon=REDDITSPECIAL
Let's wait for people tagged above to like this comment to get a final yes from them. Once done @rehankumar can share his preferred payment method and we all will pre-pay the share before he buy's subscription from his card (hope everyone is okay with it)
Also let us know the final amount debited from your card since the USD conversion is different depending on when you do it, and we can pay more to offset it among the 5 of us.

Is there really no limit on the number of devices?
Say if I pay for 1/6 of the share, can I use the login on all my devices like my PC, laptop & phone?
