Ban on VPNs will impact the corporate sector by compromising business secrets in the competitive market. Companies with links to government agencies can access information from business rivals.

Not all Internet apps are secure. And internet users are vulnerable to theft of personal, banking, and credit card details, especially when they are using someone else’s Wi-fi in a hotel or elsewhere.

VPN services establish secure connections between users and servers or services by routing the data through a remote server/servers, thus disguising the users’ identity. If an Internet Protocol (IP) address is assigned, then it helps internal or external agencies to identify the server and for that matter user’s identity.
