In my view and expertise as a security engineer it is not worth the money for private use. For professional use it is ok. For example if your connect from home to the server of the office, it is even recommanded to use a VPN, because your data is always encrypted. I recommand to use a pc or Imac. No Android devices from Google. They earn big money on collecting and stelling your data. Stay away from the Google Chrome browser, use Firefox instead + use add blockers and use common sense. Always keep your Internet security software up to Date. Clean regulary your browser history. Considering mails: do not open any fishy attachments, especially if you do not know the sender. However mailadresses can also being hacked and used by hackers. Try to keep the registration to websites as low as possible. Big creditcard companies and even servers of major banks have been hacked in order to steal information of their clients. Last couple of years, there is a trend of more and more identity theft. So do not allow People to make a copy of your identitycard or driving license. Example (this happened recently) There was a Nice house for rent. Potential Renters was asked for a copy of their identity card to make out the contract. What they actially did, was closing loans with banks on the name of those poor victims. Unaware the victims Got reminders that they had fallen behind with their payments to the bank. Since the victims can not proof it was not them, Who closed the loans, they are obliged to pay back these loans.

i've reached the half point of your video and im already barfing on the amount of bs you're also feeding your users. I agree that people shouldn't straight up trust to be completely invisible when using a vpn, but the part about tracking everything is just baffling. If you're a normal person, you are -untraceable- because your actions are similar to very many people around you. Hiding any activities that single you out will be necessary to be anonymous, but hiding every information about yourself down to even being literally invisible is as good as hanging a sign on your head saying -im here-. Thats an oddity that draws attention, thats a reason for you to be focused on and tracked, thats the opposite of being anonymous.

VPN technology has it's uses, but this is not it. You can run a VPN yourself to ensure all your mobile devices on other networks are routed via encrypted communication to your personal home network where you can safely access your other machines and use things like pi-holes on your mobile devices while on the go.
For anonymity, TOR browser is a far better choice and to limit tracking methods, no-script and tracking blockers are pretty effective. You can even randomize your browsers identity if you wish.

If you use a VPN, and do anything within any other program that phones anything home, you are still giving up information. A VPN can just give you access to other countries content. Mozilla collects data, Chrome and anything Google does this too, even a weather widget on your desktop still has access to your system. Unfortunately, unless you write your own software to do something, no dice.

If you want to be completely anonymous on the internet, I am presenting you the best option, if you follow this, it-s 100% guaranteed. Don-t use the internet. Turn the WiFi router off, turn the internet off in the settings, and don-t use it forever. I am an addict so I am also trying to not use it that much, maybe in a couple of weeks, I-ll turn it off completely.

Mozilla cannot be trusted. They built Firefox with the ability to add extensions remotely without your permission. No backdoors please!
At the moment I'm using Brave and Dissenter for all my browsing needs.

The real truth about vpns, the one nobody talks about: Ever get mad because your internet is particularly slow or cutting out one day? That will be every day if you are routing your traffic through a vpn
