Which browsers really protect our data and is it worth using a VPN for this?

[darowel]

I have long heard that using a VPN can increase the level of security on the Internet. But at the same time, they say that the choice of browser is also important to protect your data. Has anyone already encountered this question? Which browsers should really be considered safe and does a VPN help in this case?

1) VPNs are not allowed in Buzzen
2) VPNs vary wildly.  Some limit bandwidth, some limit the amount of countries you can relay from, some do not allow multiple browser tabs to be open.  Almost all of them require a monthly subscription.

If you're worried about security, there's better steps you can take before resorting to a VPN such as:
1) Strong security suite (anti-virus, firewall, adware/malware detection, etc)
2) Constant cleaning of cookies and history (optimally at the end of every session)
3) Logging off and closing browsers after transacting on a website
4) Opting out of unnecessary cookies (or not automatically opting in)
5) Limiting use of automated apps or extensions except when needed

For reference, I haven't had any negative issues in a long time and I use the following:

Opera Browser
Ultimate Ad Blocker extension
Avira Anti-Virus
Proton VPN (for localized country content)

When it comes to online security, your browser choice is really important. Some browsers like Tor or Brave are known for their privacy focus, but even they can’t protect you completely without using a VPN. The combination of a secure browser and a VPN makes your online activity more secure. For example, a VPN helps hide your IP address, adding a layer of anonymity. It’s also worth checking out the article at https://clearvpn.com/blog/secure-browsers/  for a more detailed understanding. Using private browsers and a quality VPN is the perfect solution to keep your data as secure as possible.
