Frequency of virtual private network usage in the U.S. and U.K. 2020

With 41 percent, most respondents from the United States and the United Kingdom use a virtual private network (VPN) at least once a week. This suggests that VPNs are not necessarily used for a particular occasion, but are seamlessly integrated into general internet browsing activities. VPNs are often used to unlock restricted pieces of content or ensure more privacy when being online. Additionally, mobile VPNs are also available and used, as online activities frequently take place on mobile devices.

在美国和英国，高达41%的受访者每周至少使用一次虚拟专用网络（VPN）。此现象表明，VPN的使用并非局限于特定场合，而是与日常网络浏览活动无缝融合。VPN通常被用于解锁受限内容，或在在线时确保更高的隐私性。此外，移动VPN同样广泛可用且被广泛使用，鉴于网络活动频繁在移动设备上发生。
