There are far more uses for a VPN. For instance if I want to access my NAS while outside my home.

Sure, but that's not generally a thing the commercial VPNs offer, and I thought we were talking about commercial VPNs

But some VPNs do provide you a little protection on things you might click on. Ublock and not being a dummy will get you around most of that use but for general users it is more safe.

Sure, but that's not VPN action, it's routing or filtering

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Sure but when I'm not on my network a VPN doing that is good.
