   I'm getting a new smartphone soon and in preparation I'm trying to   
   learn VPN and SSH tunneling to cloak my smartphone data. I'm   
   practicing those technologies on my current elderly LG Vortex   
   smartphone.   
      
   SSH tunneling works OK but I can't get any VPNs to work. Both torvpn   
   and fastssh tunneling give me a different IP as expected. However,   
   although I successfully connect to the cjb SSH tunnel, I can't see any   
   web pages (or anything else Internet related). Before connecting I got   
   a notice that there was a problem with the security certificate from   
   that site. Is that a problem with cjb?   
      
   I configured a VPN to work on the Win8 VPN client but could not get it   
   to work on the Android's native client. I couldn't get it to work on   
   either WiFi or cellular data, or from a 3rd party Android VPN app.   
   There is no firewall blocking that I am aware of. Am I missing a key   
   or certificate configuration?   
      
   I was under the impression that if I add a VPN to my Android's hotspot   
   app, it would provide cloaking not only to the Android but also to any   
   devices connected to its hotspot. However, some VPN services mention   
   that they offer a limited number of device connections. Do I connect   
   the VPN to a hotspot to provide VPN to all devices, or must each   
   device set up its own VPN client? Thanks.
