      All,

      We have some really bonafide smart people in our Club.  At least two that I know probably do not ever connect to the Internet without using a Virtual Private Network (VPN).  Increasingly I am using one and eventually I will probably also fall into the camp of always, always, always, using a VPN when connected.

      This cautionary article from Forbes – Google Issues Critical New VPN Threat Warning For Billions Of Users (November 11, 2025) – provides some good information on the threats and what a VPN can do to protect you.  I urge you to read it and start applying the knowledge it provides.
