I finally set up a travel VPN after my data got snooped in Barcelona
I was in Barcelona last month and used free Wi-Fi at a cafe to check my bank account. A few days later, I saw weird login tries on my email from places I had not been. It hit me that public Wi-Fi is a big risk if you are not careful. When I got home, I read up on VPNs and chose one that works well for phones. Now, I always switch on my VPN before I connect to any open network while traveling. It hides my online activity so hackers cannot see my personal info. Setting it up was quick, just a few taps in an app on my phone. If you travel a lot, using a VPN is a simple way to protect your data.
