I've been hearing about VPN but am looking for guidance to help select one.
Thank you for your assistance.

VPN technology is most often used in business to use public networks (the Internet) to enable secure communication between remote users and corporate servers.
There are many companies, some costing lots of money to provide this service. There are also proxy servers that can provide similar privacy.
VPNs and proxy servers require added configurations which may need to be changed depending on your connection type and location. That is not always easy or even possible.
I am reluctant to add more levels of complexity to online communications unless there is a real need.
