Is it okay to use a different VPN when I am at home on WiFi I just found out what a VPN is and I want to learn more I am using a private browser but my links are still purple
If you’re getting into VPNs, check out the popular options They are usually easy to use and come with good customer support for example NordVPN PIA ExpressVPN and others I personally use Mullvad because it is easy to set up and very secure
You can use these VPNs on any network you connect to home WiFi mobile data or even public WiFi all of them work
When you connect to a VPN think of your data going through a tunnel This hides your IP address and other information It can also make the websites think you are in a different place For example if you connect to a VPN server in France all the sites you visit will think you are in France
Just to let you know, a VPN doesn’t erase your search history or anything saved in your browser like passwords or bookmarks Those are stored on your device or in some online storage you still access but from a different IP address
So I want to ask why do you want a VPN Are you trying to watch shows on Netflix that are not available in your country Are you looking to torrent files and want to stay safe

You can use any VPN anytime and anywhere
A VPN is something you add on top of the network you are using
@Aldrin

Oh is that why my links are still purple
@Tenny
What do you mean purple
That’s just your browser showing you have been to that link before
A VPN isn’t magic that makes everything disappear

I barely know what a VPN is I just want to access this site without it saying I am not a human and that it can’t load It is purple because it recognizes I have visited that link before but now it’s saying there is suspicious activity and not letting me log in
You might find more sites thinking you are fake and making you fill out annoying captchas What do you actually want to do

Um I want to do something really helpful It’s a bit of a long story and I have a good reason but I don’t want to get kicked out of this group because I think it’s great Nothing bad I swear I know that doesn’t mean much from a keyboard but I want to learn to be helpful I am very interested but it’s hard without someone to guide me
@Tenny
What I mean is I don’t think you really know what you want to do I want to help but you aren’t giving much info on what you want No one here is going to judge you lol

I’m Patient_Drawings5402 My main account got banned for creating another account to ask a question in a group How did they know to ban my main account I didn’t ask the same question But anyway to answer your question lol I was on this chat site for a project for my online communications class about anonymous communication and I found this creepy guy off the bat He never asked my age etc To keep it short he was trying to meet a child so I got his picture and description and gave it to the police I guess because I said I was under 18 (I know that’s not good but I lied because he was so weird) the site flagged me for suspicious activity But I just made a new account and it worked I just didn’t want to do that but I didn’t know another way I thought if I used a different VPN like ExpressVPN (which I bought) it would let me on without needing an account but it didn’t How do I stop that from happening My use for wanting to get back on the site is kind of over since I got his info and picture but I still want to learn I want to use my computer (Apple) and learn tools like Wireshark but I don’t know where to start I’m studying to be a teacher but I also want to learn how to use my computer and the internet to help the police in the future I know it will take time but I want to make sure that we can help out My daughters can’t be left around creeps like that and yes I know I am just one person but I want to help I don’t want to be a police officer I want to know how to do anything on the computer I want to learn Literally anything
