Websites and third-party ad brokers are always out for your data. Therefore, you should always have your VPN on if you care about your online security and privacy.
This includes using a VPN when streaming HBO Max or other services like Netflix, Zee5, Hotstar, Dazn, Disney+, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video.
What about speed, you ask? You won’t feel a difference. And it’ll keep you safe at all times!
Surfshark does not encourage using a VPN in any way that would potentially violate the Terms of Service of streaming service providers.
