As we know, VPN is a very important method for us to go access the Internet. It helps us surf the web more smoothly while providing additional privacy and anonymity, making our online activity more secure, which is the most important reason for people to use a VPN.
Security
If you don't use a VPN, your IP address, geolocation, and browsing history will be truly recorded in weblogs. Various websites use cookies and similar technologies to track your data and identification. Some malicious business owners may even sell your personal data, such as passwords, credit card information, etc. However, if you use a VPN, with its tunneling protocols and encryption, a VPN can help hide your real IP address and keep you anonymous on the Internet, thus protecting your privacy. Especially when connecting public WIFI (such as in a coffee shop) to transfer money online, it is best to use a VPN, which can greatly improve security.
Fast speed
Do you notice that sometimes the network speed is very slow? The ISPs sometimes will deliberately slow down users’ Internet connection speed to motivate them to upgrade their Internet connection. But if you use a VPN, your online activity will remain private. The ISP can't spy on your activity and can't limit your Internet connection speed. Thus, you may notice that your network speed improves.
Avoid censorship
In order to prevent their people from accessing information that is inconsistent with their own political or religious beliefs, some countries and regions in the world will censor and block some websites and Internet services. If you want to access these services, you have to bypass censorship. A VPN is a great tool to do this job. It will mask your real location, help you bypass censorship and get access to these services. Meanwhile, it will keep your information safe from any prying eyes.
