How to use free Wi-Fi for banking, shopping and safe browsing

How to use free Wi-Fi for banking, shopping and safe browsing
It's very convenient to bank, shop and post photos and status updates online. It means you don't have to physically go to the bank, the store or travel long distances to catch up with family and friends who might be scattered around the country. #faf@31
The drawback to doing these and other things online is that your information is traveling through the internet. It isn't a straight shot between you and the site you're using, either. The data can bounce through servers around the country or even around the world.
That gives hackers many opportunities to steal your information. If they can grab it in transit, they can learn your passwords, details about you they shouldn't know, or even pretend to be you to trick your bank or other secure sites.
That's especially true if you're using public Wi-Fi. Hackers on the same network have plenty of tools to snoop on what you're doing.
Aside from hackers, the government and your internet service provider can also monitor your connection to see where you go, and, if they want, what you do. If you aren't a fan of that, and few people are, there is a way you can keep these parties out of your business.

Using a VPN
Of course, you can fully encrypt your connection today.To encrypt your connection, you can use a virtual private network
(VPN). In the business world, VPNs let employees working remotely create an encrypted connection with the company network so they can work safely.

Once you've installed your VPN of choice, fire it up and let it establish a connection. You can then browse the internet like you always do. The traffic will flow to your computer, tablet or smartphone through the VPN's server and over the encrypted connection.
This means any unencrypted sites you visit will be safe from prying eyes and encrypted sites will basically have double encryption. As a side bonus, your internet service provider will no longer be able to see what sites you're visiting. It will only see your connection to the VPN.
Note: If you're searching for VPNs, you'll see VPN service and "proxy" service. A proxy service can disguise your computer's identity, but it doesn't encrypt your connection. Always go with a VPN for security.
The sites you're visiting also won't know where you're coming from. They'll just see the connection from the VPN. That means the government will have a harder time tracking what you're doing as well.
Disclaimer: While the government will have a harder time seeing your activity, it isn't impossible to find out. So, keep what you're doing legal.
We strongly recommend using a VPN when you're on public Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi makes it easy for hackers on the same network to snoop on what you're doing. The VPN encryption should stop them.
Even then, you shouldn't do anything too sensitive on public Wi-Fi, like online banking. Save that for home, or use a cellular connection on the go.
