I think a lot of people here are missing the point that you can buy these and give them to friends and family members that might otherwise never try a VPN. It’s a great usability and marketing move.

it's like gifting my parents an acid kit to help burn off their fingerprints

sure it'll make for the perfect mother's day, I'm sure me mum can't wait to try it (???)

I mean, I guess I just can't comprehend buying it for someone else

WTF? Because using a VPN is essentially trying to be shady? But the rampant data thieves aren't the shady ones? Would you want to protect mum from a peeping tom?
