4 reasons to get a VPN if you are traveling to the 2024 Paris Olympics

A general view of the Eiffel Tower with the Olympics rings pictured with national flags of competing countries from the Place du Trocadero ahead of Paris 2024 Olympic Games on July 21, 2024 in Paris, France.

As the Olympics 2024 officially kicks off on July 26, you might be getting ready to head to Paris to follow the games from the ground. Whether you are going for pleasure, work, or a mix of the two, one of the best VPN apps is that travel companion you definitely shouldn't forget to bring along.

For the less techie out there, a virtual private network (VPN) is security software designed to boost your privacy online by encrypting your internet connections. It also spoofs your real IP address on the way to allow you to look like you're browsing from a totally different country in no time if needed. Don't worry if you've never used one before - most of the services are super easy to download and use, without breaking the bank.
