| what the heck is a vpn |
| I hope you know people can still track you if you have a VPN or change your proxy settings. You can search up technical backstage reports (e.g. how a security company hacks into your computer) and you'll see it makes their life 15% harder |

| Naw I don't have a VPN and I don't think I will. I've heard they can be a struggle and I just don't want to deal with that. |

PerfectScore said: I'm not afraid of the NSA or CSE spying on me, and as far as I know, Canadians don't have issues with Internet throttling. The only reason why you would bother to use a VPN (especially Tor) is the fear of conviction due to the lack of freedom of speech in your state or to engage in illegal activities. Not really I've used a VPN to play Kantai Collection, which is IP blocked to non-Japanese IPs, you may also use one for VN sites in which many are blocked to non-Japanese IPs. |

| I live in China so I need it to access YT FB etc. |

| nope. i reckon the only time in the future that i'll be needing a vpn is for torrenting, however i am not an extreme user so it is not a must for me at the moment besides, free vpns are not even that great. if you must use a vpn, i would recommend a paid one |
| VPNs are a double edged sword. Some people use it to be annoying assholes for the purpose of ban evasions and things alike, but VPNs are also great for bypassing country filters (like for Netflix, as an Aussie I can just slip by on one, whereas on my normal IP I'd be denied access) as well as for security. So yeah, I mean there's no good or bad with them, there's just the issue of the intended use. |
| I used to use one so I can watch porn access blocked sites back then when I was living in another country. |
