    But VPNs aren’t supposed to make you anonymous.
    They secure your data while in transit to/from the exit node. Maybe that’s your job so you can access their LAN. Or it’s a public VPN that secures your dada from the local WiFi or ISP you’re directly connected to. That’s what it’s built for.

      And what do you thing HTTPS does exactly? Whe the web was HTTP sure VPN’s had a point as people on public wifi could sniff your trafic. Now they can’t.
