It’s almost impossible to avoid propaganda and hype about virtual private networks (VPNs). Anywhere you look on the internet there are adverts, advertorials and arguing about why you need (or don’t need) one, which one is best, or how you can prove one isn’t run from someone’s basement. If you buy into all this hyperbole, you’ll be sold on the idea that a VPN will protect you from government spies, nosey ISPs and advertising agencies. Indeed, you’ll be rushing to hand over your card details because this amazingly priced deal won’t last for ever.
