Watch out for “free” VPN services

Virtual private networks (VPNs) are a good way to shield your online activity by encrypting the online connection. Although, in many cases you get what you pay for. Free VPNs may still log your actions and keep those records or sell them to third-parties; the Facebook-owned Onavo VPN, recently removed from the iOS App Store, showed the reality of such risks. Think about investing in real protection.
