why would anyone use a vpn to surpass an European law that cares about your privacy?!

@stebo02 @worfamerryman, not only for privacy, its also to bypass country restrictions, eg, try to watch a movie or serie in the German publicTV in their official Homepage, from other country, even of the EC. You can't without VPN.

i wasn't talking about using vpn in general, that's ok, but using it to have Facebook steal your data is pretty wild isn't it
