I'm on a VPN at the moment, in a coffee shop, and apart from spoofing my location (good for accessing streaming apps that have location restrictions) and causing Gmail to have a hissy fit and block my email access because it thinks I'm somewhere else, I can't quite get my head around how more secure they might be.
If I were to be doing my online banking my details might be hidden from sniffers on the coffee shop wireless, but surely my details are now going through a server in God knows where that I have no clue who owns or has access to?
