Message: [QUOTE="Zinethar, post: 3739479, member: 8436"] A VPN essentially hides your real IP address and replaces it with one found in the area you are trying to look like you are in (the real process is a bit more complex but that is the simplified version). The stated rationalization for this is to protect your identity when online because your IP address can be used to identify the service provider you use and through them you from the bad folks online. Being able to then access programming in that new area is just "unintended" benefits. [/QUOTE]
