I’ve been parsing all of my monthly subscriptions because I’m broke as fuck and the only thing I’d rather not do without is a VPN. Are free VPNs a thing and are any of them worth using? I tried looking this up, but I feel like yall would know better then the normies

edit: had someone hook me up, ty goat

The way that some "free vpns" work is that they use you as an outnode and sell your bandwidth to other users. 'Hola VPN' is an example of a company that did this. This most certainly puts you into more danger than it would save you from.
