Well you all might have heard about the craze and the advertisement posted on various websites and on videos on YouTube about the the necessity and requirement of vpns by the common people, which earlier word thought of to be used only by the tech savvy people

But to your surprise in this world where cyber threats are a growing fact you need to stay equipped and have a certain layer of protection to be able to to keep you safe from such threats hence you definitely need a VPN

This will be an short article explaining as to why do you require a VPN and basically what is a VPN

# definition

According to Wikipedia

virtual private network(VPN) extends aprivate networkacross a public network, and enables users to send and receive data across shared or public networks as if their computing devices were directly connected to the private network. Applications running on a computing device, e.g. a laptop, desktop, smartphone, across a VPN may therefore benefit from the functionality, security, and management of the private network.

Well to put it short or in layman's terms a VPN actually lets you you seek virtually that you are located at different place than you are physically present now so that you can dodge some virtual barriers which are present at your place by virtually being present at the another place chosen by you on the internet

#why do you need a VPN

Well the next time you visit a public cafe, a mall or restaurant or a theatre

And while you you think that you are safe

while browsing on the free Wi-Fi provided there but my friend you are not because those networks can be particularly sabotaged and the information passing through them can be stolen

what I mean to say is that anyone if aware about technology can capture your data your credentials and passwords that you used while surfing the web through the free Wi-Fi provided there

So a VPN acts as an anonymizer and masks what the real data is about hence fooling the attacker about your real credentials and password, that is it helps you in masking your data so that it can't be stolen and used against you.

Well isn't that a relief

Now the question arises that should I use a free VPN or a paid one

well one would suggest definitely a paid one since they contain more features and are more secure than the free ones but if you don't currently have the money for a paid VPN you could definitely go for a free VPN that has some popularity and genuine nature and is trustworthy which you can find out through the reviews about it...
