Finland VPN for accessibility & privacy

Finland ranks among the top countries by freedom of the internet. The only real mandatory blocking applies to child pornography. The Finnish government has prepared a blacklist of websites to block. However, it isn’t very accurate. 

Reportedly, less than 1% of the 1600 websites showed content classed as child pornography. Less than 4% contained links that lead to such websites. The implementation is clearly lacking in this area. But ISPs are still pressured to start blocking websites based on that list. 

If you want to visit a legitimate site inadvertently blocked by the government, a VPN will allow you to get past the ISP blockade.

Free Wi-Fi is one of the most attractive things to a tourist or any traveler in general. However, such spots are also appealing to criminals who want to steal your data. Using a VPN on a mobile device – a phone, a tablet, a laptop – can secure your connection. Even if the hackers can steal your data traffic, a VPN service will have encrypted it, making it useless. That way, it’s a lot less risky to use free Wi-Fi at your hotel or a cafe. 

According to statistics, Spain is second only to Estonia when it comes to Finnish tourism. It’s also the second most popular tourist destination in Europe, making it attractive to data thieves. Moreover, the country received a hefty investment in 2019 to provide Wi-Fi in 500 towns and cities. To make the best, safest use of this opportunity, you need a Finland VPN.
