How does the Privacy Shield (VPN) and AdBlocker work?
The privacy shield (VPN) hides your IP address, therefore hiding your location. To do this it routes your device's internet connection through the VPN's private server, rather than your internet service provider (ISP), so that when your data is transmitted to the internet, it comes from the VPN server rather than your ISP. It's supposed to show a different location so that your real location is not disclosed.
Keep in mind, that although the VPN may make it appear as though you are located elsewhere, most are aware that a VPN is commonly used, therefore don't question your location.
The AdBlocker will blocks ads from popping up on the websites you navigate.
