I don't fully understand how VPNs work.
How much can the VPN provider see when using their network and what information do they get from you? How is it more secure?

They see everything but payed for vpn's normally take an oath to not leak ur data. if ur using a free one they probably done sold it already
>>58993280
What do you mean by data? They see web traffic and websites visited? Can they access files?
>>58993319
They can see traffic but they can't look at or access ur files either
>>58993358
Can they see uploads and downloads or access them?
>>58993433
Yea they can see ups and downs but can't access them
>>58993492
Can the other people connected to the same server see ups downs, web traffic etc...?
>>58993525
No VPNs software is just click and ur IP is hidden no one else knows

Yeah? So basically your privacy is based on trusting the VPN provider. Why are VPNs recommended again?

Apparently they take an oath not to leak ur data so 50/50 chance
>>58993658
>take an oath
What does this mean? Like a legal oath?
>>58993687
More like a "I got your back" kind of oath

Well fuck...

It is called host your own. Hosting my own for 5 bucks a month with unlimited bandwidth and such a good connection that it is basically the same as when I don't use it.
