So, who wants to explain the why and wtf for's around VPN. Is this something I really should be considering/concerned with? Is it just an electronic prophylactic?

i use a vpn when i'm using a network i don't know or control. free wifi in the coffeehouse? vpn on. laptop at home? vpn optional ... if you're accessing controversial resources then vpn on.

Henry is correct, in my opinion. I seldom use a VPN here at home, but always when accessing free WIFI that operates "in the clear". Eric, here is a PC Magazine article that may clear things up a bit:

QAnon / GOP Republicans mentally lack the necessary intelligence to even tell a decent lie (Ex: A cabal of Satanic, cannibalistic pedophiles run a global child sex trafficking ring and conspired against former President Dotard dRUMPf during his term in office... Jewish space lasers, etc.). What in the hell makes anyone believe these melon heads can actually govern?
Thanks for the link Luke, that was very helpful indeed. I figured Henry was giving me the straight skinny on it but that article really spelled it out for me. I'm going to re-read that article a few times I'm certain. Again, I appreciate the info, thank you.

Work issued laptops run Palo Alto VPN to "phone home".
For when we are not on the physical network.
