Re: Windows 11 vpn
Use Quidco or topcashback to buy one you'll end up paying peanuts. Also they have match highest rate, if you find a better cashback rate elsewhere, e.g I'm with Quidco and match rates on topcashback.
I've used express, nord, pia, digibit. Nord comes out on top in my opinion. I just purchased a new 2 year nord late last year for around £20.
Remember with cashback it's for the standard product, just the VPN. Don't go clicking the premium options. They don't qualify for cashback.

Actually, I was recently surprised to see that Microsoft has just begun to offer a VPN service operating from within the Edge browser on my Windows 10 in S Mode device, which I noticed because it was displayed as an option in the 'Browser Essentials' pull-down menu that had a little green dot to grab my attention.
Apparently, it's a smart VPN integrated into Edge that only operates when needed for situations like unsecured Wi-Fi in airports or other free public networks, so the 5GB/month offered free will likely be enough for most light-duty users who only occasionally operate in these environments.
Try Microsoft Edge's VPN Browser | Microsoft Edge
However, note that this is NOT the same sort of VPN that some more paranoid people use to try and remain anonymous while online, in order to avoid being tracked for advertising or other purposes. It's really just a way to protect you from the potential that your free Wi-Fi connection might be monitored and either your credentials stolen, or activity tracked for any websites that also don't happen to include their own SSL (https) secured transport, which is uncommon for most sites like banks many major retail or other important services today.

Yes, that question again.
If you have no use for one then stop wasting our time asking. 
If you have an actual use, then state it, as it makes a difference to responses.

As Snoopz says, I believe it's the same in a few other countries too, a quick Google will tell you which, but Albania has worked ad free for me for the last few years without fail.
