Reasons for Using VPN Even if you are non Techie

Internet penetration is at an all time high in India with consumers now being able to access their favourite sites even in the most remote parts of India. While this is great news, it also means that Indians should start using certain tools to enhance their web browsing experience. One such tool is a software called VPN. In simple terms VPN is a software that hides your IP address and also encrypts your data. This means you can browse the internet anonymously and prevent yourself from being the victim of malicious attacks.

In this article, we will mention 3 reasons why using the VPN when browsing online is a good idea. So without further ado, here is the first reason.

1. VPN allows you to use public wifi securely

When you connect with a public wifi, you get a disclaimer message warning of potential hacking from unknown individuals. This means that while you are sitting in your favourite coffee shop browsing the internet, some not so nice person might be tracking your online activity. Using a VPN prevents this from happening and keeps you secure from such malicious attacks.

2. Prevents your ISP from Collecting your Data

Your internet service provider has always spied on you in one way or the other. Your ISP provider collects data as you browse and can see what you are looking at and when. This data is then sold to several companies who in turn bombard you with adverts. With a VPN your ISP will be unable to collect this information.

3. Access to any Content from any Place

We all know that gambling is still very much considered a grey area in India. There are several states that have outright banned online gambling. However, with a VPN you can access sites such as cricketbettingwali.in and get the latest information on welcome offers, match deposit bonuses and cashbacks. Having a VPN onboard gives you access to a plethora of bookmakers that you can use to place bets.

These are the three most important uses of VPN in our opinion and it should be a tool that you should be using on a regular basis.
