Now that the iPhone lets us get online anywhere, the concern for data security becomes even more important. One way to secure your data connection is with an encrypted connection, such as a Virtual Private Network (VPN), but many outside of the corporate world don’t have access to this type of connection. That’s where AnchorFree’s new HotspotShield for iPhone comes in.
AnchorFree has been offering free VPN accounts for laptop and desktop computer users for years, and they’ve now extended that access
Visiting the iPhone section of their site provides instructions for setting up VPN access on the phone, all for free. HotspotShield doesn’t require any additional software; it just takes advantage of the iPhone’s built-in support for VPN connections, which can be access under Settings: General: Network: VPN. Once activated, all traffic via the iPhone and remote servers is encrypted, regardless of whether you’re on a cellular or Wi-Fi data connection. This provides maximum security for your data.

This would be great if I could actually connect. I’ve been trying to set this up since yesterday but just keep getting a message saying the remote server has disconnected.

No problem connecting, using this for me — I’m in London.
But is there really a point? What reason do I have to trust the server at AnchorFree? If it’s compromised or acts maliciously, I’m as much at risk as I am if I just use an open wifi without VPN, right?
