You see? They know it. I know it.You can disguise your IP address to hide your identity while surfing the Internet.
Nothing wrong with thinking that VPN is "only" about security, but that's sort of like thinking that a chainsaw is only for cutting down trees, and not for cutting lumber to size for personal use.TinCanTech wrote:Agreed.
