Why to get a VPN

Written by Nick Snow | Feb 18, 2021 9:19:40 PM

The problem: 
Even in 2021 the fact is and remains that the majority of people across the world have some form of internet restrictions imposed upon them. 

These restrictions can be categorised in 3 areas:

Obstacles to Access: infrastructural and economic barriers to access; governmental efforts to block specific applications or technologies; legal and ownership control over internet and mobile phone access providers.

Limits on Content: filtering and blocking of websites; other forms of censorship and self-censorship; manipulation of content; the diversity of online news media; and usage of digital media for social and political activism.

Violations of User Rights: legal protections and restrictions on online activity; surveillance and limits on privacy; and repercussions for online activity, such as legal prosecution, imprisonment, physical attacks, or other forms of harassment.

Why to get a VPN?

1. Stay private

Your internet service provider can see your internet traffic and probably logs your browsing history.

A VPN scrambles your traffic in an encrypted tunnel so not even your ISP can read it. No monitoring, no activity logs.

2. Defeat censorship

The websites or services you want to use may be inaccessible from your location.

Your VPN enables access to the free internet from anywhere.


3. Save money

Some online stores show you higher prices if you’re browsing from certain locations.

VPN.asia lets you browse from 32 locations to keep you safe from price discrimination.

4. Encrypt everything

Free public Wi-Fi is dangerous. It’s trivially easy for a hacker on the same network to read your personal data.

A VPN encrypts your entire internet connection to protect all your communications, even over unsecured networks.`

5. Extend your coverage

You might be protected on one device, but what about your laptop, smartphone and tv?

VPN.asia gives you apps for all your devices plus support for every major operating system.
