Do you know the notes specifically on YouTube, which always means:

“Sorry but the content you want is not available in your country”?

Although this has become rarer since YouTube has agreed with the rights holders of content, but who believes the content on the Internet are equally available to all in each country the same is wrong. Because even in Germany content for local users are blocked.

And these are not just clearly illegal offers that absolutely should not be available anywhere, but also those with purely informative, but just undesirable character.

With a VPN Provider you can handle such locks quite comfortably.

Because the connection to the desired page does not take place via the usual way, but is redirected via the VPN Provider.

It operates servers all over the world, and you have the ability to choose which country you want to connect to from your PC.

This will then report to the desired website that you are coming, for example, from Brazil, China, Australia, USA or any other country in Europe, instead of reporting your true location. So if a website is blocked for the German area, but accessible for the US area, you can easily circumvent this hurdle.

The DSGVO, which applies to Europe, has also led many website operators outside of Europe, due to the complexity of the regulations, to simply no longer make their content available in Europe. With a VPN, this is no longer a problem.

Not only is access to information different in different countries, but also prices for products and, above all, services. Companies offer their products at different prices due to country-specific income relationships, otherwise they would not sell at all.

It is therefore not basically the price of a product or service requires it is value, but which the customer in the respective country willing and financially able to pay for it.

The providers of VPN networks promise above all anonymity in the network, since the connection data is not stored by users. This is possible, among other things, through the headquarters of VPN providers.

For example, our test winner Nord VPN maintains its headquarters in Panama City and is not subject to the obligation to maintain a user log, and thus to save user data.

In public networks (WLAN hotspots) in particular, security is not guaranteed at all. Because at the latest since the abolishment of the Störerhaftung in which the operator of the public hotspot no longer has to adhere to illegal activities that users operate via his network, only a few take care of even the smallest security measures.

That’s why the user has to become active and take precautions. The Federal Office for Security (BSI) also recommends using a VPN, especially in public networks, because your communication is protected here via the encryption system of the VPN Provider.

Admittedly, we initially had our concerns whether it really must be back to take money for security in the hand, and in the future via a VPN in the network on the road. Because if you just do not want to shop abroad, or the information available in Germany in the network enough, you notice nothing of it.

The Internet is not faster or slower, but everything runs as usual. But it is similar with insurance. From that one notices nothing as long as something happens, and this must jump in.

At least we do not want to miss the extra security we’ve gained. And if you look at Google search result lists without VPN redirection, and then again changed its country code, there are quite different results to light.

At Nord VPN which was awarded by different PC trade magazines as a test winner, you get currently for 2.62 € per month a fairly good offer with 30 days money back guarantee in which several devices (smartphone, tablet, notebook, desktop PC) secure at the same time.
