VPN server

IPv6 server

Answer 1

The correct answer is VPN server.

A VPN works by routing your device’s internet connection through your chosen VPN’s private server rather than your internet service provider (ISP) so that when your data is transmitted to the internet, it comes from the VPN rather than your computer. The VPN acts as an intermediary of sorts as you connect to the internet, thereby hiding your IP address – the string of numbers your ISP assigns your device – and protecting your identity. Furthermore, if your data is somehow intercepted, it will be unreadable until it reaches its final destination.

A VPN creates a private “tunnel” from your device to the internet and hides your vital data through something that is known as encryption. Hence we can use public hotspots connected to VPN.
