RE: INTERNET NEUTRALITY - WHY YOU NEED A VPN! - Money Well Spent

in #internet7 years ago

@surfyogi, Absolutely greatest title indeed importand conversation here. I've heard before about VPN. These days, VPN technology has made the transition from a nice thing to have to a must-have for many folks who are online.In short, there are a number of compelling reasons why you should start using a VPN, Putting WhatsApp,Skype and Snapchat services through a VPN provides a higher level of security with the inherent encryption. Online communications have evolved from simple text based emails to robust cross platform messaging services. Additionally, a VPN can be used to overcome geo blocking restrictions, so for example, continue to play a based game while traveling overseas. Also, in some cases, using a VPN will offer faster connection speeds as it could avoid throttling. Using public wi-fi can also be fraught with hazards. These include packet sniffers, falling into phishing scams via fake wi-fi connections, and being hacked or infected with malware. The good news is that a VPN technology will help protect you and your precious data from these types of attacks.Finally, a VPN can increase your level of protection against DDoS attacks.Thank you for giving valuable blog post.

THANKYOU
I was upset and not thinking about all the great uses of a VPN that can sometimes change our browsing experience, and also protect other messenger services.

a) Avoid Geo-blocking - often it is not possible in the US to view things that are freely viewed in Sweden, for example.
b) Often some sites refuse US users to view a video or item found on search. But sometimes they throttle and the video is viewable but does not view well. Simply use your VPN to log into another server in another country and this video may now be watchable!
c) Better security on public wifi, as you mentioned as well, is a huge benefit of using a VPN app.
