I’ve been researching and there’s a ton of info out there that I’m not entirely sure is factual or unsponsored content.
There’s some experienced users here so I just want to confirm what I’ve gathered for the most basic and safe use of VPN for regular people who’s using it for everyday use like Netflix and torr enting games, movies, TV shows etc.
Things Id would to be confirmed:
* everything that comes out of the other end of VPN server can technically be tracked from that end (but can it be tracked back to original ip?)
* don’t log in to anything important while on VPN if you don’t want it to be tracked/leaked
* isp can’t see what you’re doing but know you’re connected to a VPN
* it’s safe to use it on streaming services
* safe to use to protect your identity when torren ting stuff (how likely can you be caught?)
So basically anything truly private you shouldn’t access through a VPN right? So just do banking or whatever on your normal home wifi, but for private browsing and downloading you use a VPN to mask your activity?
Also with the whole logging thing, there is no true way of knowing if you are logged as far as I understand, but is this a huge concern for those who are using it like a normal person (including torr ents) and not trying to do anything crazy?
Sorry for long post but I really want this to be clarified because there’s dudes out there saying don’t use VPNs now cuz it can be compromised and others who say you would be stupid not to as it protects you from being tracked.
Thanks in advance
