When you use any VPN, free or paid, you’re trusting a private company to look after your data responsibly. If you want a free VPN for streaming, the paid version of Hotspot Shield starts at $12.99 per month. You’re given a data allowance of 500MB per day, can only use the VPN on a single device at once and can’t access entertainment services like Netflix and Prime Video. Speeds are slow but consistent and the free VPN can be installed on iOS and Android devices. With the free version you can unlock US websites and avoid local content filters by tunnelling your internet through one of Hotspot Shield’s servers located in North America. While most paid-for VPNs offer time-limited trials, Hotspot Shield offers a free version that you can continue using for as long as you like and without handing over your credit card details. Free version cons: Speed capped at 2Mbps, no streaming.Free version pros: Support for a range of devices, no registration required.
