Intro

Tom Spark has been attacking me and r/vpns lately because I won't let him shill on this subreddit. I have gotten tired of the false accusations and spam from him so I've made this post to compile his deceptive behavior. If anyone has additional information about such behavior from him, please share, and I'll update the post accordingly.

Tom Spark might attempt to divert attention from this post by targeting me rather than addressing the concerns raised. It's essential to be wary of fallacious arguments or any other tactics that appear insincere. Also, approach any defenders of Tom Spark with a degree of skepticism, as there's a good possibility they are Tom Spark himself.

Who is Tom Spark?

Tom Spark is a Youtuber who runs the channel Tom Spark's Reviews and vpntierlist.com. He also runs the subreddits r/NetflixViaVPN and r/vpncomparison.

He claims that he's a objective VPN reviewer but in actuality he promotes the VPN that offers him highest affiliate commissions. He is currently shilling TorGuard and will do anything to make affiliate sales including lying, misleading and slandering.

TorGuard

TorGuard is a very shady VPN company that deserves a post of its own. But for now here are some links you can use to learn more about Tom Spark's '#1 VPN':

• TorGuard tries to sue NordVPN for disclosing their own vulnerability to them
• TorGuard stores password in clear text
• TorGuard steals $700 from affiliate user

Alt Accounts

Tom Spark runs a large group of alt accounts on Reddit to shill TorGuard, promote his content/affiliate links and slander individuals he dislikes.

His confirmed main account is u/newslooter.

His known alt accounts are:

• u/Luchalandon - web archive
• u/Lyolyo - web archive
• u/thirstyOx660 - web archive
• u/BotterNotter - web archive
• u/Weekly-Fennel33 - web archive

He might have additional alt accounts. If you're aware of any, please inform me, and I'll include them on the list.

How to Spot a Tom Spark Account

You can easily identify his alt accounts since they usually exhibit the following characteristics:

 

Promotes TorGuard Relentlessly

His alt accounts shill torguard.

Example 1, Example 2, Example 3, Example 4

 

Posts 'Tom Spark's Reviews' Videos

I've literally never seen anyone promote his videos other then himself. Most of Tom Sparks videos are low quality glorified ads and I have a hard time believing anyone other then himself would share them. I suggest watching them for yourself and see what I'm talking about.

Example 1, Example 2, Example 3

 

Posts at the Same Time As Tom Spark's Main Account

All these accounts post between around 1am-4pm AEST. Data gathered with Reddit Metis

• Tom Spark's confirmed main u/newslooter:
• u/Luchalandon -
• u/Lyolyo -
• u/thirstyOx660 -
• u/BotterNotter -
• u/Weekly-Fennel33 -

 

Active in r/vpncomparison (Tom Spark's Subreddit)

Tom Spark's runs the subreddit /r/vpncomparison (head mod is newslooter). The subreddit is a mostly a ghost town. 50%+ of the posts are just Tom Spark videos with 0 comments. But of course Tom Spark is active there with his alt accounts.

Example 1, Example 2, Example 3

 

Requests VPN Related Subreddits

Tom's Accounts often request VPN related subreddit on r/redditrequest. Probably wants to use them to shill his affiliate links.

Example 1, Example 2, Example 3, Example 4

 

Accounts Are Bought

Tom Spark's alt accounts often shows signs of being bought. For example u/Luchalandon was:

• Mostly posting memes.
• Stopped posting for 2 years
• Came back a few months ago and posted a few comments and gif to get more karma (to make account look real and reach karma posting requirements for subreddits). Post even ended up getting removed for being a recent repost.
• Once he gets a post and a comment with lots of upvotes, the account switches to almost exclusivly promoting TorGuard VPN and posting Tom Spark Review videos.

His other accounts have similar traits.

 

Hates Techlore

Techlore is a Youtuber who makes videos about privacy and tech. Not sure what the history between Techore and Tom Spark is but he seems to really dislike him.

Tom Spark often links to Tech-Bore. A YouTube channel dedicated to 'calling out' Techlore. I put calling out in quotes because the issues raised are incredibly weak such as forgetting to answer a patreon question lmao. Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if Tech-Bore is ran by Tom Sparks since the only accounts who share Tech-Bores videos are Tom Sparks Alts. They are just such good buddies lol .

Example 1, Example 2, Example 3

 

Hates u/daiqo

u/daiqo is a frequent user of r/VPNTorrents. Daiqo often calls out the shilling done by Tom's alts. This has lead to Tom Spark basically harassing Daiqo. He even accuses Daiqo of having schizophrenia for promotin...

Hi friends. It should be no surprise that we all have small, somewhat irritating difficulties happen occasionally. We purposefully joined, and fully support, sometimes unfairly targeted grouping of server addresses. Don't whine about it. Understand and support. End of rant.

Has anyone else noticed any issues trying to torrent while using iVPN this week? I haven't had any issues since I purchased a yearlong membership, but suddenly my torrents are stalling regardless of the server I choose. The torrent speed will go up to about 2.5mpbs (download) and then stall out, slowly decreasing until it hits zero. I've had VPNs prevent me from torrenting in the past which is why I chose iVPN. Has anyone else had this issue? If so, I would love to hear a solution.

It stared a couple of days ago: some websites just became inaccessible when VPN is enable as if I don't have internet, while others work fine maybe a bit slower but not sure. For example, anything Google like YouTube & Gmail, and so on doesn't work, Reddit doesn't work, Amazon doesn't work, but everything Meta like Facebook & Instagram work, SimpleLogin works, Twitter works, Proton Mail works.

I didn't change any of the settings. At some point it just stopped working for some websites

I understand that IVPN used to have a server UA-1 in Kharkiv, indeed the android app map still shows it. I was wondering how long it continued operating in the region, and what kind of reliability it had? Were there any unique challenges? And was there any risk to data security or integrity if the physical server had somehow fallen under Russian Intelligence control without IVPN's knowledge?

Using IVPN Premium now since a long time. I was really happy with the previous Multihop Feature as i need it for Business purposes. But now with the new Port-based approach it really sucks. Before i was able to select Port 443 TCP for Entry and Exit Server. Now i have to choose the predefined Ports e.g. 22801 for example when i want to route the traffic over Multihop connection. As i have a small router when traveling, im not able anymore to connect via Multihop for instance on airport or internet coffee as the higher ports are blocked, and normally just ports like 80, 443, 53 are allowed…

Also now it is really easy for internet service providers to throttle the connection speed, as the connection is not possible anymore via the standard ports…

Also every time to create the VPN Config on the Website again, if you want to switch the Entry / Exit Nodes to get the related port number for the connections sucks…

Is there an Option, to get the previous Multihop Connection on Standard Ports back?

iVPN is an expensive service. There's no one that can say otherwise. But that's ok because we all had premium service for a premium price. So it was fair.

But now PortForwarding got phased out, the price was kept the same and we get no services to replace the huge loss of PF.

Has iVPN opened any statements about extending the refund window? Of course I don't mean full refund, just the remaining months be refunded.

Customers who signed up before Nov 2020 will not be able to log in to the IVPN Client area and apps briefly on 16th August. Maintenance starts at 8.30am UTC, planned to take 1-4 hours. VPN service is unaffected when already logged in to apps.

IVPN accounts affected are those using email and password to log in. Accounts created after November 2020 (using account ID as an identifier) are not affected and should be able to log in to , IVPN apps and perform account related actions.

We have officially changed the name of the company operating IVPN from Privatus Limited to IVPN Limited. Ownership structure, jurisdiction, address and administrative registration details are unchanged.

The reason for this move is to bring our product and brand name into alignment, reducing confusion and providing clarity to customers, partners and other parties about the operator of the service.

To reiterate, this change only concerns the name of the company, and has no effect on:

• Ownership structure of the company
• Team behind IVPN
• Registration number or other company details
• Gibraltar jurisdiction, registered address
• Legal guidelines, processes for data requests and transparency reports

In the coming days, we will update the company name on various assets of IVPN, including, but not limited to, different pages of our website, apps, and GitHub pages.

Our new company details, for reference:

IVPN Limited 5 Secretary’s lane GX11 1AA Gibraltar

Open text editor of choice, copy code, save as OmegaOptions.bak. Then import this into the app.

For the noobs, here is a screenshot of where you import the backup file. Just select 'restore from file' and select OmegaOptions.bak or whatever you saved the file as.

Hopefully this works, if not I can host the file on some site for you to download. If I do have to turn it into a file and host it somewhere, check the code so you know it's trustworthy and not malicious. Hopefully this method works just fine though.

I have 'quick switch' enabled by default, anytime you click on the icon for switchyomega, it will change to a different proxy.

Regarding the TunnelCrack paper published recently: IVPN apps were not tested by the researchers, and unlike other providers, we have not received a vulnerability disclosure in advance. We are investigating the findings and will issue a detailed response after our evaluation.

You can find the research paper and summary of issues here:

Based on a first review we can conclude "LocalNet Attack" can be mitigated by disabling Local Network Access in VPN apps.

If you are concerned about that attack vector, we suggest unchecking 'Allow LAN traffic' in the Firewall settings in the IVPN apps (except iOS) when connecting to networks you do not trust. This feature is disabled by default - no action is required unless you enabled it.

We will update this thread with a link to the detailed response.
