Do I need to use a VPN?

The only time I ever use my phone for streaming, shopping, browsing, etc I use either my data plan or home WiFi. I never connect to public WiFi.

Should I be using a VPN anyway? If so tell me why, and which one? I have a hard time seeing the point in paying for a service I don’t see any value in for myself.

I don’t really know what a VPN is, but if you’re surfing the ‘net without one, it suggests to me that you DON’T need to use one.

Waitaminute. You don’t work for the State Department, do you? OK then, no.
