🔐 What is a VPN - and why should you use one?
A VPN encrypts your internet connection and routes it via a secure server. This means
- Your IP address is masked
- Your location remains hidden
- Your data is protected from prying eyes - whether from hackers, advertising networks or even your internet provider
But for me, a VPN is more than just a security tool. It is a statement: I decide who can see me online - and who can't.

A VPN also allows you to do this:
- Access to content that is regionally blocked (e.g. streaming services)
- Secure surfing in public WLANs
- Protection when working with sensitive information
A VPN is almost mandatory, especially for people who travel a lot or work remotely.
