Looks like "anything is hackable" but it's MUCH safer to have VPN.
Can a VPN Be Hacked? – All You Need to Know About Common Hacking Techniques!
"Even though VPNs can be hacked in theory – you’ll be safe in 99.99% of the cases. They can completely stop hackers in some situations while providing reliable and strong-enough protection in other situations. The bottom line is that a capable VPN can be your best ally if you seek online protection."
Can VPNs Be Hacked? We Did The Research, Here’s the 2020 Guide
> VPNs
The reason VPNs are important is because the only way a hacker can get to you is via your IP address. Once they have your ip address they can scan your system to determine the open ports. I have the site bookmarked. Once they have an open port they can get into your system and do anything they want.
What a VPN does is give you a masked ip address. You could be in Ohio and your IP address would show you in Zimbabwe. That’s they key. Now I’m sure there is a chance that the VPN provider could be hacked but...really? I work for a web based buisness. There are protections for that. If you’re that paranoid you may as well just burn your computer.
Sites like FR, once you join can see your MAC address or your disk serial number but YOU are letting them do that. That’s an important point. Oh yeah, if you didn’t know that, trust me, it’s true.
Just my $00.02 but don’t trust me, I’m a moron.
