Some of the Top VPN's You Can Use for Free. | Take Back Some of Your Stolen Privacy and Rights. | E.1
VPN stands for Virtual Private Network.
--
In a world where all our life and data is being surveilled by companies, the police state and government for no real good reason, other than marketing and general Big Data collection - it is one of the ways you can reclaim some of your privacy stolen by such "entities" and agencies.
Geographical areas or countries are being denied access to certain sites, which is another reason you can use these.
They allow access to blocked websites and also protect your identity at the same time.
Some of the names keep popping up for free VPN's when you research them, so let's have a look.
Remember -- free is not always better -- they have to pay for their service somehow!
Personally it is important to do your own research, type in different search strings and invest some good time when you are dealing with any type of investment, privacy or security related items!!!
A Few Top Free VPN's:
(In No Particular Order, 1 VPN Solution Per Episode)
TODAY:
BetterNet

Some feel that Betternet is easily the best VPN solution, since it's is 100% free and displays no ads and charges no fee whatsoever. Others have done comprehensive research on the company/quality and found that to not be the case.
No bandwidth limit and you can use as much of this free VPN as you want.
They seem to have upgraded their system / servers. The speed difference / lag between your original connection and Betternet is basically not noticeable.
Since no authentication is required for set up, you can have it on as many devices as you like at the same time.
Betternet is cross platform, which means you can have all your devices covered with security.
If you wonder how they’re providing the VPN service for free, they’ve covered that important question -- see all that just below in the links.

Some Cons/Drawbacks I Found AboutThem:
Betternet is a VPN provider with 38 million users around the world. That’s 38 million people who don’t realize that they are using the world’s worst Virtual Private Network (VPN). That’s according to the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) in Australia. The CSIRO published the most comprehensive study of VPNs available for Android at the end of 2016. Although Betternet wasn’t ranked as the worst VPN in the world at the time, the two worst VPNs that the research identified have since gone out of business. That leaves the number one spot to Betternet.
Those who plan to join the 38 million Betternet users should probably read all of the small print first. If your eyesight isn’t that good, don’t worry! We’ve run the BestVPN.com magnifying glass over the contract and found all of the skeletons in the company’s closet.
Although Betternet is officially owned by an independent company, the trademark for Betternet is owned by Anchor Free. This company owns another VPN, called Hotspot Shield. The director of Betternet, Alexander Choroko, launched a sister company in April 2017, marketing VPN routers. That company is called Betterspot. The router that it markets comes with the Betternet Premium service included and pre-installed.

CONS:
--
-- Free service only has US servers
-- Contains malware
-- Contains adware
-- Includes tracking procedures
-- Gives third parties access to users’ computers
-- Absolves itself from the actions of third parties
-- Keeps logs
-- Cooperates with information demands by the authorities
-- IP and Domain Name System (DNS) leaks
-- No kill switch
-- Slow connections
-- Can’t get around regional restrictions
-- Collects data on user activities and sells it
When I did some basic research and dug deeper since I wanted to know their location and thus what laws govern them - it led me to some of these points.
I tried Anchor Free - their related company years ago, and I know for a fact, it messed up my laptop. It was slow, seemed to gunk it up and install crap on my system, and I am being very kind to leave it there.
It turned me off today when I found out some of these related people / problems are involved (again) completely.
I found the cons right HERE

Please note -- I will have limited internet access for awhile -- so PLEASE do not be upset that I cannot reply right away, or to everyone. I am dealing with some changes, and will have limited time online and will be happy if I get a few blog posts up a week.
This has really upset some people but I do not force my opinions on others, or need to communicate every detail of my life or issues, most people do not care anyways. I invested around 10 hours or more a day on Steemit most of my first 13 mths here, I just do not have that time in my life right now, and that includes for replies and voting/curation.
I have done my best, sorry if you do not understand like some are clearly having a problem with. It's a blogging platform, and I will do my best at everything, and to keep blogging.
Carry On.

Some of those cons don't look too appealing. Might be worth paying for one.
The Cons look like a complete Con;D~
You are right on the .......money with that.
My comments personally towards the end, are honestly how I feel, after my 2nd round of research revealed some of that.
Thanks for the comments.
Good job
Great post Barry! I happily pay for PIA VPN.
But I know others will want to try the free ones out there. Any VPN is better than no VPN. 😎
I agree 100%
I also happily pay knowing that free VPNs don't operate out of the kindess of their hearts. Here is a (fairly) comprehensive list of popular VPNs, ranked, with reviews and pricing:
