Yeah I use it all the time. For one you can download torrents at full speed with it. And it’s great for when you are connecting to random wifi connections at restaurants and other businesses. Everyone in all of the threads has been like huurrr durrr Google for privacy hyuk hyuk, while giving themselves a reach around for being so smart. That’s not the point of this VPN. It was a great tool that was a good value add to a storage service I already pay for.
A quick lightweight security tool for situations that require minimal security, which frankly for the public at large is all they ever need, the boogeyman is in fact not hacking your local coffee shop wifi work zombie access nodes, relax. It was also pretty handy when tmobile wants to throttle YouTube you could pop this on and get back to videos without buffering.
Most people who truly care about privacy wouldn’t use google products at all, including their remote storage or whatever you’re using that makes this an inexpensive add-on.
There are plenty of affordable remote storage and vpn services that aren’t google that have much better track records on privacy and don’t owe $7,000,000 in fines for an antitrust case.
It’s nice that you’re saying people believe they’re super smart and make 4chan style noises because they write that they don’t like google for a privacy product, but I have to tell you: you do not need to give yourself a reach-around. Your genitals are on the front of your body.
I have, yeah. While I was traveling internationally and the roaming mobile data rates were insane. So I used the VPN while connecting to hotel/public wifi.
Anyone here even use this?

Wait how does that help with roaming charges?
Instead of using mobile data he used public Wi-fi through VPN.
Oh like the vpn is just to encrypt traffic on the public wifi it doesnt help with roaming itself. That makes sense
Right. Not about to use public WiFi naked!
A way to give Google even more of my personal data? I’m good, thanks.
I’ve never even heard of it. They sure weren’t putting their VPN front and center.
If you have Google one you can download the Google one app there’s a list of things you get in there and to redeem it from the app
I use it when I’m traveling and am on insecure WiFi.
However, it doesn’t let you pick your egress location,.so if you’re trying to get to PornHub in Texas, it won’t help.
I do when on unencrypted wifi
