The vpn only hides your Web activity to those around you (sniffing your WiFi). Logging into a site that does not use https is still foolish. Anyone listening on the other end can crab your credentials. You are only encrypted between you and the vpn server not between you and the Web server.

The author needs to be careful when using the words privacy and vpn.

Firefoxx04 I think you should be more careful about posted. your lack of knowledge on VPNs show you don't seem to understand the concept of VPN and what they are intended for. VPN do not care about wifi first off. the means to how you have a connection is irrelevant. VPNs also do not care about what websites you go to http or https. that is also irrelevant. please go and learn what VPNs are used for and what they are not... because i think maybe you have been confused and assumed everyone else is rofl.
