VPNs can help protect your data from cyberattacks, data leaks, and snoopers like advertisers and ISPs, especially when using public Wi-Fi. They can also help protect against third-party tracking, government censorship, and cybercrime. however VPN’s cannot protect against threats like malware, social engineering scams etc. While VPNs can enhance your anonymity online, they do not provide complete anonymity. Your VPN provider still has access to your real IP address and can potentially track your online activities unless they have a strict no-logs policy.VPNs encrypt your internet traffic, making it harder for anyone else to intercept and read your data. This protects your privacy from eavesdroppers on public Wi-Fi networks or your ISP.
