Why people are saying good bye ? Smiley U can use simple VPN , like hola extension for chrome u can set it to go over vpn only on primedice so when u are on other sites it doesnt go over vpn.

I used it for netflix it works like a charm.

If we use free VPN, they could steal our data / add some ads to every site we visit
But, we don't waste our money by purchasing premium VPN too Sad

There is still a 2fa to protect your account! Not really a big problem Smiley
That is incorrect. I agree it isn't really a problem though.
I could come up with 10 ways to "hack" 2FA, but the relevant risk for VPN is the man-in-the-middle attack (MITM) and 2FA does not help for that. Basically all the traffic goes through the VPN so if the hacker controls the VPN he could show you a fake PD site (copy) and see the passwords you fill in, but also the 2FA code. Both can be send to the real PD site under the attackers control - and he can make withdrawals etc. Basically 2FA does not help at all against MITM. This is the same reason 2FA doesn't work against phishing sites (also fake site that gets your password/2FA code and uses it immediately.)

HOWEVER, the description in https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1043827.0 seems pretty correct. All you have to do is make 100% sure you are connected to https://primedice.com and there is nice little lock icon next to it. That topic has some more details. This way the traffic is encrypted between you and the real PD site.

Still I do recommend everyone to use 2FA whenever there is a decent amount of money involved (or your account is worth a lot to you.)
