Beginners Guide to VPNs

Your Secret Tunnel to Online Privacy

De: Alsden Keir

Narrado por: Michelle Peitz

In a world where every click is tracked, every search is analysed, and every online move leaves a trace, digital privacy has never been more critical or vulnerable. Beginners Guide to VPNs: Your Secret Tunnel to Online Privacy by Alsden Keir is your essential roadmap to understanding, choosing, and using Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) confidently and clearly.

Far from being a tool for tech experts or conspiracy theorists, a VPN is a simple, effective solution for anyone who values online privacy, security, and freedom. Whether you're a casual, frequent traveller, remote worker, or tired of being followed by targeted ads, this book shows you exactly why—and how—to take back control of your digital life.

From the ground up, Beginners Guide to VPNs demystifies what a VPN is and how it works. Through friendly analogies, real-world examples, and clear explanations, Keir explains how VPNs create a secure, encrypted tunnel between your device and the internet. This tunnel hides your IP address, shields your browsing habits, and protects your data from hackers, surveillance, and snooping—especially when using public Wi-Fi.

But this guide goes far beyond the basics. It walks readers through the essential components of a VPN connection: tunnelling, encryption, IP masking, protocols, and server networks. You'll learn about the most trusted encryption standards,s, like AES-256, explore protocols such as WireGuard, OpenVPN, and IKEv2/IPSec, and understand how each affects speed, privacy, and usability.

The book helps readers navigate the often overwhelming market of VPN providers. It breaks down what to look for in service—from security policies and speed reliability to server availability and platform support—while warning against common red flags and marketing hype. Whether you are looking for a VPN to protect your devices, access global content, or avoid ISP throttling.
