How to set up a VPN on macOS

Here’s why a VPN is so useful:

Enhanced Privacy: Using a VPN is like wearing a mask online. It hides your real IP address, making it appear as if you’re browsing from the location of the VPN server. This keeps your online activity more private and harder to track.

Encrypted Messages: Imagine scrambling your messages so only the intended recipient can understand them. That’s what encryption does! When you use a VPN, your internet traffic is encrypted, making it unreadable to anyone trying to snoop on your connection. This is especially important when using public Wi-Fi networks.

Bypassing Restrictions: Sometimes, websites or online content might be restricted based on your location. A VPN can help you access these by virtually placing you in a different location (the location of the VPN server).
