That is, they are selling you VPN services under the impression you are not secure without a VPN. This scare tactic works all too often, and truth be told, a VPN is not necessary for all connections, and often, gets in the way. This can make using a VPN inconvenient, where you have to shut it off and turn it back on, depending on how you are using the internet. With VPN Split Tunneling, you can avoid these issues, by selecting what traffic you want to go through the VPN, and what traffic you don't. You can take this a step further, if you have a VPN on your router, where you can do split tunneling for all the devices on your network. In addition, if you use multiple VPNs, you can split tunnel between them, and your WAN connection, on your router. You can accomplish this all, and more, with OpenWrt and the Policy Based Routing package. Watch the video to see examples of how you can make your own custom routing policies, and not have to toggle that VPN connection on and off.
