[QUOTE="n8chavez, post: 980266, member: 90863"] What do you mean how? A VPN uses an encrypted tunnel between your computer and the VPN's service provider, right? That 's security. But a VPN does not always block ads, trackers, malware, etc. That would be privacy. So, even though a VPN conceals your location it doesn't always provide privacy in a way you can control. Bottom line, VPN + Customizable DNS filtering = best. For that look at NextDNS or ControlD. So, for both, use a VPN, enforce HTTPS, and enforce DoT/DoH. [/QUOTE]
