Thanks for sharing! This is highly relevant to my master thesis, appreciate it 🌻
What is your master thesis on, if you don't mind me asking?
All good! It's about the use of free VPNs and how they may impact user privacy and security. But I do mention that VPNs is a one of the reasons as to why some people choose to use them in the first place. And this is a good source to have as it shows exactly the reasons as to why people flee to VPNs (be it paid or free).
Spoiler, in the majority of the cases free vpn's are not good to use, but there isn't too many documented articles on the topic, only some. So wanted to contribute on that field :)
That is really cool, and super interesting! Thanks for sharing!
