There are many services
but most of them will give you a lot less protection then you may think.
It's pretty simple...
The cheaper the service cost the greater the risk for you!
- The ones you should not use are the FREE Browser Addons from NON-Brand Companies, as many of those actually are Spyware.
Remember:
Nothing is for FREE ?!
You get what you pay for :)
VPN is a service that allows you to connect to the internet privately.
You can use a VPN from any computer or mobile device. There are several well-known VPNs out there including free and paid options.
Why use a VPN?
VPN will mask your IP.
You see, any device you have is connected to the internet and has an IP address. But VPN will mask it.
- VPN will encrypt your data, therefore making it more secure and giving hackers one hell of a hard time cracking encryptions where in most cases they just give up.
PLUS on top of all this
it also lets you tell the internet that you are in a different location, just about anywhere in the world you'd like. This will help you pass Geo - location locks that a lot of countries and streaming services have, giving you access to more content.
Most VPNs will not keep track you of your online activities including your search history which is just another one of the many perks.
