Why Use VPN?
Virtual Private Network, or VPN for short, is a tool we can use to protect our data and privacy. It creates a private network where all the data coming and going out of the network are encrypted. You can use VPN to hide your IP address from authorities and be anonymous. You can also use VPN to unblock geo-restrictions and stream IPTV content in countries where it is considered illegal.
