They are applicable to a variety of threat models ranging from protection against global mass surveillance programs and avoiding big tech companies to mitigating attacks, but only you can determine what will work best for your needs.

2022-04-04 10:44:50 -04:00
2024-03-05 00:43:45 -05:00
Using a VPN will **not** keep your browsing habits anonymous, nor will it add additional security to non-secure (HTTP) traffic.
2022-04-04 10:44:50 -04:00
2024-03-05 00:43:45 -05:00
If you are looking for **anonymity** , you should use the Tor Browser **instead** of a VPN.
2022-04-04 10:44:50 -04:00
2024-03-05 00:43:45 -05:00
If you're looking for added **security** , you should always ensure you're connecting to websites using HTTPS. A VPN is not a replacement for good security practices.

< summary > Operating System Disk Encryption< / summary >
For encrypting your operating system drive, we typically recommend using whichever encryption tool your operating system provides, whether that is **BitLocker** on Windows, **FileVault** on macOS, or **LUKS** on Linux. These tools are included with the operating system and typically use hardware encryption elements such as a TPM that other full-disk encryption software like VeraCrypt do not. VeraCrypt is still suitable for non-operating system disks such as external drives, especially drives that may be accessed from multiple operating systems.
