Thanks for breaking down the VPN myth so clearly! I’ve had friends swear VPNs make them ‘invisible’ online, and I’ve always tried to explain it’s more like a privacy curtain than a cloaking device 😂. Your point about mobile devices still leaking location via cell towers is so underrated. Anyone else use a VPN browser hardening (like blocking trackers) for layered privacy?
