Running VPN all the time on smartphones will drain your battery faster. Citing the words of information security expert Alexei Lukatsky on this subject reported Edition of Radio Sputnik.
“Having VPN turned on can only affect battery charge: it dries up a bit, but other than that there are no restrictions,” Lukatsky said.
The expert noted that while the user has objective reasons to keep the VPN on at all times, he should in principle be aware of sources that cannot be connected through the anonymizer. According to Lukatsky, such resources exist among Russian online services.
“The problem of disabling VPN only depends on the resources you visit. With the VPN turned off, you cannot access any foreign portals that are blocked by their owners as part of the anti-Russian policy. However, some services, by contrast, cannot be used through a VPN. For example, with a VPN you will not be able to pay for parking or go to government sites, ”explained the expert.
At the same time, Lukatsky noted that it is worth paying attention to the fact that in the settings of some VPN services you can specify the addresses of sites to which the anonymizer is automatically opened when connected.
