Why do I need a VPN?
The phrase "virtual private network" is frequently misunderstood by the general public, who consider it too high-tech for an average user and fail to discern all the reasons why they should be using a VPN.
At some point in your life, you will be connected to a public network, e.g. while traveling and using public Wi-Fi, transmitting private information, or even just perusing entertainment options on Netflix. With SysVPN, you can explore new lands with no security worries.
When you connect to a website on the Internet, all your outgoing and incoming traffic and data will be routed through your ISP in a plain, readable format that the ISP and several others, like hackers, surveillance agencies, or advertisers can see what you’re doing on the Internet.
Plus, your real IP address and geo-location are also exposed to the web and anyone can use that information to find out various things about you – such as what country and city you live in, and who your ISP is.
Basically, without a VPN server, you’re like a sitting duck on the web – you’re exposed to serious privacy breaches alongside data and identity theft risks.
