Frequently Asked Questions
When is Black Friday?
This year, Black Friday falls on Friday, November 28th. However, many services have already started offering deep discounts on VPNs. Follow PCWorld for alerts on the best VPN deals. We will be distributing discounts through November and until Cyber ​​Monday, December 1st.
What is a VPN?
A VPN creates a secure tunnel between your computer and the Internet. You are connecting to a VPN server, which may be in the US or another country (such as France or Japan). Your web traffic then passes through this server to make it appear as if you are browsing the site from that server's location, rather than from your actual location.
When you use a VPN, it is difficult for others to track your online activity. Only you, the VPN service, and the website you're visiting will know what you're doing.
A VPN can be a great solution to various problems such as online privacy, anonymity, increased security of public Wi-Fi and, of course, location spoofing.
What should I look for when buying a VPN on Black Friday?
There are a few things to consider when shopping for a good VPN deal.
The first thing you should pay attention to is, of course, your budget. How much are you willing to spend each month? How much can you afford to give up on a long-term plan with an upfront payment? You also need to determine how long you intend to use the VPN. Do you just need it for a short trip? A few months? Or forever? The best VPN deals tend to be long-term plans of 1 or 2 years.
Next, you can start comparing features. Look at the number of servers and locations for each VPN. A good starting point is to look for services that have at least 1,000 servers and are located in 30 or more countries. The next thing to consider is the speed of the VPN. The best way to do this is to read reviews online to get an overall rating. For a more accurate picture, look for reviews like ours, which give you a relative average of connection speeds rather than a direct comparison of Mbps speeds.
Finally, compare the privacy protection level of each VPN. Does it have a no-logs policy? Has it undergone any independent audit of its servers? Where is the VPN company located? This is all very important, and you'll want a VPN with a clear and transparent data collection policy.
