I imagine the majority of people using web extensions for VPN are likely using them for watching blocked videos rather to hide. That's why I pay for a VPN service, to watch geo restricted YouTube videos. So to me it's as secure as a WiFi hotspot and that's alright. |

1) Slightly better security/privacy using airport, cafe, etc. wifi
2) So I can watch iPlayer, YouTube etc. in different countries.
Do Nord keep logs? Are they based in a five eyes country? I don't care to be honest. I don't use it to protect myself from that. I use it to get around stupid geo-retrictions and to make it hard for an attacker to intercept my data when I have to send an email at the airport.
While on the subject I haven't had any issues with Nord, they are not the cheapest but no way near the most expensive either. Their iOS, Android, macOS and Windows apps are all very nice to use as well or you can do it manually with OpenVPN or whatever but that is more hassle that it is worth for me personally.
