VPN

A VPN is a virtual private network. It uses a secure connection between a computer and a network or two networks. It can be used to display another IP address but does not make tracking or fingerprinting of the device impossible. For the latter a plugin like Chameleon for Firefox can be used. VPNs feature a server and a client side.
