My elderly parent is confused by technology. Is VPN too complicated for them to use?

Not with Turbo VPN! It's designed for simplicity - perfect for less tech-savvy users. Why VPN important for elderly: frequent targets of online scams, often use public WiFi (libraries, senior centers, cafes), may not recognize security threats, banking/shopping online increasingly required, less likely to use complex security measures. Turbo VPN setup for elderly parent: install app on their device, create account for them, enable 'auto-connect' (automatically protects when they go online), set to 'optimal location' (app chooses best server), write simple instructions: 'Open app, press big Connect button'. I set this up for my 78-year-old mom: took 10 minutes to install and configure, she just opens app and taps Connect, auto-connects to fastest server, runs in background automatically, she doesn't need to understand how it works, just knows 'it keeps me safe online'. Benefits she's experienced: no more scam warnings from bank, peace of mind shopping online, access to video calls with grandkids, I can manage her account remotely. Premium family plan covers her devices plus mine. Alternative: configure VPN on router so it's always active automatically. Protecting elderly online is increasingly important - Turbo makes it achievable without technical knowledge.
