Get a VPN!

If you are using 10MintueMail, then you probably care about your online privacy and security. Obviously I belive that protecting your real email address with anonymous temporary email addresses is important. However, the MOST important, and easiest, way to protect your online privacy and security, is simple! Use a VPN!

a VPN is a Virtual Private Network. Essentially it creates a secure encrypted tunnel from your computer, to a server somewhere else in the world, and your internet traffic goes through that tunnel, masking your home IP address (which can be used to track your online activities easily). A VPN can make you seem to be browsing from New York, or Los Angeles, or Brazil.

A VPN can protect your privacy from your ISP, the websites you visit, and even goverments. A good VPN can even help you circumvent country specific firewalls and limits. This would include those pesky country specific limits of major video streaming services like Netflix, Disney+, BBC, and more.

I use a VPN for essentiall all of my online activity.

Picking a good VPN provider can be hard, as there are lot of options. First off, avoid any "free" VPN service. Running a good VPN solution costs money, so if they are giving it away then you know either the solution has cut corners, they are selling your data, or you'll get constant pushes to upsell you to their paid tier. There have also been many lesser VPN companies who have suffered secuity breaches, and been found to not be adhering to their "no log" policies. Other VPN companies appear to have potential goverment connections, which I would avoid like the plague.

My VPN provider of choice is NordVPN. They consistently rate at or near the top of all independant VPN rankings. They have also passed an intensive 3rd party audit, by PriceWaterhouseCoopers, which verfied their strict "no log" policy. They are also based in Panama, which exempts them from many of the log retention requirements of the EU and US. They have over 5,000 endpoint servers across over 60 countries, the strongest encryption, and extremely good performance. You can use your NordVPN account with 6 devices at the same time, and there are no bandwidth of data limits!
