We all are aware of AI and all the amazing things it is capable of. We have seen how it has helped us solve the most complex problems like they were no big thing and become more productive by reducing human error.

However, AI also brings along the challenges of data privacy and security. In one way or another, we are trading our personal information for comfort.

Sure, we are safeguarded by encryption. But somehow, we are so much invested that even encryption is taking a backseat.

Hence, VPN companies are taking it upon themselves to ensure business protection. Some of them are even using AI to enhance their capabilities.

This often leads me to wonder what AI has in store for the VPN industry. How is it going to impact us? Will VPNs stay relevant in the future when the world will be dominated by artificial intelligence or it will somehow get lost somewhere?

That is why I am here for this blog in which we will discuss how AI is going to impact the VPN industry. Let us begin:

Big Data Jobs

Let us face it. Governments and big companies are using AI to detect, censor, and ban content.

Sometimes, it is for the good of people. Some countries are using AI to block websites and applications that are a threat from the security point of view. Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter are using AI to censor content that promotes hate, biasedness, or terrorism. Even YouTube uses AI to detect videos that promote terrorism. In September 2017 alone, it took over 83% of such videos.

However, there are times when AI can also be abused in censoring content. You must be aware of the Great Firewall of China. This collection of legislative actions, technologies, and AI helps the Chinese government domestically regulate the internet. Some other governments are doing the same to ban content they feel is hurting their cultural and religious sentiments.

In fact, it is not just China, many countries are even using AI as a means to prevent brands from showing content outside their geo-license allowed locations. If you are worried that Netflix and Amazon Prime are not showing your favorite TV series or movie, it is probably because they do not have the rights to display that content in your country.

So, the problem of AI censor is very much real and there is little you can do about it.

4. Why You’re Using Spotify Wrong

However, the heart wants what it wants. Even if your favorite movie or TV series is not available in your country, you may still want to watch it.

Now, the question is: how?

Well, VPNs are providing a great way for bypassing AI censorship and Geo-restrictions. According to 2020 stats, over 26% of all 4.1bn internet users are using VPN services to access restricted video content, stay anonymous on the web, or access services that are not available in the country. No wonder VPN is one of the most flourishing industries at this moment and it will continue to grow in the future.

Governments and Brands are using anti-VPN software to deal with people who are using VPN to access geo-restricted or AI-censored content. These anti-VPN software use AI to track and flag IP addresses that are using VPNs to bypass Geo-restrictions and censorship.

So, unless you are using a powerful VPN that is using IP addresses that are still not flagged by the anti-VPN software or are powerful enough to beat the AI, you are in tough luck. Chances are that your access will be immediately blocked the moment you try accessing restricted content on Netflix or Amazon Prime.

Using VPNs to access content that is censored by the government can even land you in legal trouble. So, it is important to be careful.

As a result, there is a demand for VPN systems that are powerful and can even bypass anti-VPN software.

This quest has brought a new revolution in the VPN industry. VPN has become so powerful that now they are using the power of AI to go around internet censorships. Netflix geo-restriction is no longer a big issue because we have the best VPNs for Netflix using which you can enjoy a seamless and sensor-free binge-watch experience.

Not only this, but there are also VPNs for accessing restricted content or tools that are unavailable in your country. All you need is someone who keeps a close eye on these things.

You may somehow feel that among our quest to rely on VPNs to go around restrictions and AI censorship, security has taken a backseat. But that is not the case. VPNs always take security seriously.

Even over time, VPNs have improved a lot from the security point of view with artificial intelligence. With the power of machine learning, VPNs can combat various security threats more efficiently. They can now better protect users from cyber-attacks.

Machine learning and VPN have also brought corporate data security to a whole new level. Even during the COVID-19 time, many organizations relied on VPNs to ensure smooth remote working. In fact, it was the only reason why IT enterprises were able to work from home without any hassle.

Artificial intelligence has also helped VPNs deal with the issue of slow internet with the help of a technique called AI-based based routing. Using this technique, VPN software can route users to the server that is closest to their location thus experiencing better speed and optimized ping response. The technique also ensures that the VPN traffic stays within the network and users cannot be tracked easily.

In simple words, AI is making VPNs more efficient and secure by adding a new layer of protection.

I believe VPNs are definitely going to be around in the future. With the increasing reliance on artificial intelligence, we need them around.

Sure, AI is changing lives, but it is also a subject to abuse. VPNs can keep such things in check. They can also ensure security which often gets ignored in our increasing quest for comfort.

The best thing is VPNs are actually benefiting from artificial intelligence and machine learning. They are now becoming more powerful and efficient. It will only make them more popular and their demand will increase.

In short, we are not far from days when we can browse the web without any fear of censorship, geo-restrictions, or even cyber threats.

Anyways, what do you think about the impact of artificial intelligence on the VPN industry? Please share your thoughts in the comments.
