A free VPN service may give you a sub-par streaming experience while exposing your privacy and data to potential dangers.
Most free VPNs have fewer servers and limit data usage. Some even sell user data to sustain their business. The worst kind of free VPNs may infect your device with malware.

Yes, you can run a VPN on your smart TV — if the manufacturer and operating system are right. If your smart TV has an app store that features VPN apps, it’ll be really easy to set up. In other circumstances, you might need to put in some extra work, like setting up a VPN on a router.
A VPN may slow down your internet connection since your data takes an additional step to “visit” the VPN servers. But with a fast VPN like Surfshark, the speed drop is minimal and shouldn’t interfere with streaming too much.
There aren’t any free VPNs dedicated to smart TVs, but there are free VPNs in general out there. A large number of those have a bad track record of maintaining user privacy. Many free VPN providers also sell their user data to third parties.
