VPN for Kodi
Your IP Address: 116.203.150.216 is visible to the public. You are taking risk! As a kodi user, we used to watch tv shows, movies, live streaming videos, PPV and much more. Watching these from your own IP address is totally risky. Also, few kodi add-ons are geo-restricted and can’t be accessed by all the users. In order to get rid of such issues, a Kodi VPN is always recommended. Using a VPN will unlock geo-blocked content, keep you anonymous online and watch without buffering! After testing out various VPN services for kodi, we found IPVanish to be the best amongst all. Click here to get an instant 57% special discount on IPVanish for kodiforu users.
