- michaelmrose 8y agoTo be clear its not just hiding your IP you are proxying all your potentially sensitive data via their servers. Also bandwidth may be cheap but its not free. It mentions a paid option for a bout 5 euros a month that is 10x faster with unlimited bandwidth. I interpret this to mean that the free option has a finite supply of bandwidth and is slow which is logical because otherwise people that want to watch 4k netflix over it would put them out of business. I also see that they offer a browser plugin but don't seem to provide say an openvpn connection which seems inferior as that protects all forms of data rather than just browsing data.
