When Turkey tried blocking VPN access, GhostBear allowed Turkish citizens access to Twitter and YouTube.

TunnelBear became hugely popular during the anti-government protests in Turkey. It means you can access Netflix, Spotify, and BBC iPlayer sitting in China, or even tune in to your favorite NFL or soccer feed. Some users have reported that TunnelBear's GhostBear feature works in China, which is great news. GhostBear is TunnelBear's stealth mode, and it is very helpful for people who want to bypass Government and ISP censorship. The VigilantBear feature blocks your Internet connection till the time TunnelBear reconnects to its server automatically after losing connection. This causes a serious privacy leak called IP leak and defeats the purpose of using a VPN service altogether. It is common for VPNs to lose connection to their servers occasionally, and this is the brief period when your Internet connection is unsecured. This protects you from a DNS leak where your actual IP ends up making a public DNS query.
