[QUOTE="Zero Knowledge, post: 1022900, member: 57429"] Why? 1st reason is for privacy and to avoid being tracked, I don't trust my ISP, because every ISP collects, stores and sells your data or gives it away to governments. 2nd is for security; I find using a lot of public Wi-Fi out and at home it's an extra layer of protection. 3rd is for geo-blocking and trying to avoid local censorship of various websites. Why not use TOR or other technologies? I do, I regularly use NextDns and sometimes Psiphon, and I find they complement the VPN. TOR is a bit *meh*, I don't really have a reason for using it, I also think you get much more attention using it than a VPN. [/QUOTE]
