I need to access backend systems at MSFT, Sony and Nintendo and that access is based on IP whitelisting which kind of restricts you to one or two locations, my office, home.
Using a VPN I can give them an IP address to whitelist that I can access from anywhere.
VPN will slow things down a bit but not something you'd generally notice.
Plus it's cheap as hell, currently Nord is $36 a year with a 3 year commit.

Yes, this is RE: my thread about internet video streaming and me thinking of signing up for HULU/Sling to get sports but after research they may block some games due to my location. A pelican suggested a VPN is a workaround for that.
