The best VPN for Mac is NordVPN.
NordVPN

One of the best VPN deals right now also happens to be perfect if you’re keen to use Netflix and Disney+ on your travels. Currently, you can sign up for a standard NordVPN subscription for just $96 for the first two years saving you a huge $103 off the regular price of $199. Working out at just $4 per month, it’s likely cheaper than your regular coffee order. Here’s what you need to know about NordVPN before you sign up.

Why you should sign up for NordVPN

NordVPN is one of the best VPNs around and one of its key highlights is the fact that it enables you to watch shows even when you’re traveling abroad and geo-restrictions would ordinarily restrict you from watching your favorites. Each country offers different content with Disney+ and Netflix varying depending on where you’re traveling. That’s not always convenient if you’re midway through a season rewatch of something before heading on vacation. To circumvent this, simply connect to the streaming service via NordVPN and you can act like you’re still back home.

It’s simple to use as all you need to do is pick a US-based server and NordVPN does the rest. Alongside that, its VPN provides you with enhanced security so that you’re safer online with your browsing activity hidden from anyone snooping. There’s also malware protection as well as a tracker and ad blocker to further protect you while you browse. NordVPN also offers extra features such as split tunneling where you can choose which apps of yours need VPN protection and which trusted apps don’t so you’re in full control at all times. There’s also a Kill Switch feature that kicks in any time your VPN connection drops unexpectedly so you’re always fully protected without any surprises.

Packed with functionality, NordVPN is incredibly simple to use so anyone can figure it out. With thousands of servers, you can easily return home with it. While there isn’t a NordVPN free trial, being able to sign up to two years worth for just $96 is incredibly cheap with the price working out at just $4 per month. That’s a tiny amount for peace of mind and the ability to use Netflix and Disney+ on all your travels. Sign up for it today so you’re all good to go for future journeys or any time you’re using public Wi-Fi and want extra security.

3 Hulu movies you need to stream this weekend (April 26-28)
Luke Kirby and Michelle Williams in Take This Waltz.

As you've probably noticed, this is the last weekend of April. That means Hulu is about to lose some of its best movies before the new titles arrive May 1. And while we've already shared five great movies leaving Hulu at the end of April, those aren't the only terrific titles going out the door.

That's why this week's picks for the three Hulu movies that you need to stream this weekend are off the beaten path from the films we've previously chosen for April. We've picked out a historical drama, a romantic dramedy, and a remix of a classic Charles Dickens story. But since these movies are only around until April 30, you should catch these flicks before they go off to some other streamer.

Like Amazon Prime Video’s Fallout show? Then watch three shows and movies starring Ella Purnell
Lucy enters a house in Fallout.

Fallout has proven to be one of the bigger hits in Amazon Prime Video's existence, and it's also one of the most anticipated shows the streaming service has to offer this year. The series, which is loosely adapted from the popular video game franchise, stars Ella Purnell as a newly invented character who has to set off on a quest that will take her to the surface of a postapocalyptic version of Earth.

If you watched Fallout and found yourself intrigued by Purnell, in particular, then you're in luck. She's still a relatively new face in Hollywood, but she's starred in a number of projects in recent years, many of which have required her to hide her British accent. These are three you should definitely check out if you're a big Purnell fan.
