Watching this video here:

Basically saying IF someone who wants to hack you can Hack you even IF you using a VPN you pay for

So is it Really worth having a VPN then?

I say people are never 100% safe from hackers but might stop the AI and Governments tracking things might not see it

Most people use VPN's for Piracy and for Work

Depends on what you're doing and what sites you're accessing. Doing legal things and a VPN should protect you.

Going by the Video I put up it does not because of Browser Fingerprints and over Wi Fi

Doing Legal Things yeah would not mean people who be Chasing You but Does not Mean a Hacker can still get your Info

Total rip-off.
Only ever used one while travelling overseas to access Fox Footy.
Apart from that never used one to download tv shows/movies in Aus.
Never had an issue with copyright.

You use a Private or Public Tracker?

Can use VPN to get around Blocks the Goverment have put up

It really depends Dave. I've just moved back to the Middle East for a while and there's no way I could watch what I want to watch without a VPN. ABC News, BBC News and plenty of movie streaming sites would be out of bounds for me without one. Luckily AFL is taken care of via the Collingwood overseas membership option which works out cheaper than taking a Fox subscription. I was very pleasantly surprised watching our game the other night against the Tigers. The streaming quality was fantastic.
Any measure we can take these days to protect ourselves online is worth looking into.

Looks like it Depends what you doing with a VPN

Getting around Geo-Blocking is a Very Good Reason to have a VPN

Also IF you Torrent stuff so can hide your IP so your ISP don't know what you doing and where you getting Torrent can't as well

Though using it to Encrypt over Wi-Fi might not work as well as they make it sound like
