Amidst the glossy marketing for VPN services, it can be tempting to believe that the moment you flick on the VPN connection you can browse the internet with full privacy. Unfortunately this is quit…
Damn… I guess the next idea is going offline for good

I think TOR would be more suitable than a VPN
Tor is definitely another option. For my personal use however, I have my entire network covered by a VPN so all outgoing traffic uses it.
I’m sure I could setup Tor to do the same, but I imagine my family and I would get blocked more heavily on sites, as well as get our bank accounts and such flagged or something.
Like many things, it obviously depends on your threat model.
