Browsing the internet without a VPN is like giving your consent to a digital peeping Tom. You are essentially allowing anyone — may it be your ISP, a random hacker, or the government — harvest your personal data. In the event that happens, you can do very little to take it back.
The responsible thing to do is to protect yourself with a VPN service to render yourself anonymous to anyone on the internet. We already listed down our favorites here, but if you want to save a few hundred dollars on subscriptions, take your pick from these options that are currently on sale via the Mashable Shop:
