the funny thing is he himself makes clickbaity videos… like all the time

Don’t trust any content “creator” especially if they have a YT channel… YouTubers wants you to click and companies wants you to buy

I agree Tom Spark himself has a ton of bad takes but I just thought this video was funny

As always, work out who you are trying to keep away from your data, learn how a VPN works, what it does and doesn’t do and properly investigate the privacy policies of your VPN provider before signing up. Don’t rely solely on these clickbaity privacy and security charlatans - they thrive on paranoia so it is often in their best interests to publish “hot” takes and confuse their viewers. And even if they’re trying to spread awareness in good faith, they still don’t know anything about you or your circumstances and therefore can’t reliably recommended you products.
