Do you use VPN or need one/which one if so free/pay.

Featured Replies

Was looking into VPN either a very good free one or at the worst a cheap year one as i have Kaspersky Total but the VPN is useless with bad reviews and would never pay for it.

What do you use ??

I was tempted to try this free ProtonVPN as seem good reviews,i know its only limited to 3 countries but unlimited data not like most 300mb or 500mb per day.

First thing I need to ask is why do you want a VPN? Depending on what you need it for will mean some providers are better than others.

The whole point of a VPN is that it's private. Free VPNs have to make their money somehow, and you can guarantee it's through your data being sold and therefore offer no protection whatsoever. The trial ones generally have so little data you can't spend any time on there before running out, and the ones that aren't data limited will be slower than an old dial-up connection.

In my opinion (and most of the nerds on the internet tbh) you're better having no VPN than a free one.

To be honest i don't know the true protection from them and i used the free trial ProtonVPN and now on free one and delete it soon as very good reviews.

I only use online banking and have full Kaspersky for years but being VPN it changes your i.p number i was thinking better protection but thanks for the advice..out it comes.
