The company rolled out Google One’s VPN feature back in 2020, but you could only access it if you’re paying for a plan with at least 2TB of storage, which costs at least $10 a month.
…
it’s discontinuing the feature because “people simply weren’t using it.”
Gee, I wonder why… 🙄
Well this sucks. I used it when I traveled, public hotspots and such. Worked fine. I never found them intercepting traffic, and I use private DNS. I don’t think they can get into tls connections yet, so as long as your apps are secure, it’s just as reasonable a risk as a public wifi.
