In fact, if you don’t choose a reputable provider a VPN will do more harm than good. Of course, there are reasons to use a VPN: Accessing blocked sites, hiding your IP address from the sites you’re visiting, and hiding your browsing activities from your internet service provider. All of that is fine. Where the claims start to get a little deceptive, is when providers talk about security.
