Might as well look no further than Wytopia (at their product by that name: “Personal VPN”). Find it at

for $59.99/year in PC/Win or Apple. A VPN is a connection between your operating system, some software, and an online service (or server) that creates a bullet-proof shield, so to speak, around your traffic. Sounds very James-Bondish, but it’s very important to many people to maintain privacy, whether they’re sending financial information to their bank, an order to Amazon, or instructions to their missionary. All of those relationships and more take place over a connection similar to a VPN. So, once you’ve hooked yours up, you can browse or collect email and nobody can read *any* of it, even though the internet connection is coming through their government or company. Extremely worthwhile any time you have to use a wi-fi connection — *anywhere* (your homeland, or otherwise).
