VPN Fallacy

Just like crypto companies does the OPPOSITE of what they claim - they do NOT provide decentralised transactions, VPN (virtual private network) companies also do the OPPOSITE of what they claim - they do NOT protect your privacy.

VPN companies are providing public services to ANY member of the public who believe they are paying for a "Virtual PRIVATE Network" service when they are really paying for a "Virtual PUBLIC Network" service.

Your private cyberspace's fixes that problem by giving you your own virtual private network.
