Why do you need a VPN for Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0?
Keep your gaming habits private
Your IP address is just part of the data that brokers can collect about you online. But keeping your IP hidden and your internet connection encrypted makes it much harder for them to collect that data and use it for targeted ads!
Stop DDoS attacks aimed at you
Nothing can save you from hackers DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service)-ing the entire server. But if their attention is ever turned to you specifically, a VPN server can save your bacon.
Protect yourself from SWAT’ing
Hackers can’t call the police on you if they don’t know where you live. By playing Warzone with a VPN, you can hide your real IP (Internet Protocol) address and eliminate one of the most common ways of narrowing down your physical location.
Avoid bandwidth throttling
Playing Warzone/Warzone 2.0/Modern Warfare 2 can consume a lot of bandwidth. Sometimes, the ISP(Internet Service Provider) may throttle your connection when you’re doing that. But with a VPN on, they can’t know what you’re doing — no artificial slow-downs!
Bypass local firewalls
The thirst for gaming is never satiated, even when you’re at work or school. But if the local Wi-Fi administrators have blocked games via the firewall, the only way to play Warzone is to connect via a VPN.
