Hotspot
Shield has been widely popular with more than 60 million total
downloads resulting in over 100 million user sessions and two billion
monthly page views monthly. Quantcast reports AnchorFree’s website as
the 51st most-trafficked on the Web.The VPN product is designed to make
public browsing worry-free by automatically detecting unsecured Wi-Fi
networks, warning users when they’re at risk, and automatically activate
Hotspot Shield in these cases.The service then provides a temporary IP
address and encrypts each user’s entire Web session, turning all HTTP
sites into HTTP(S). This is a welcome service, freeing users from
relying on individual websites or network hosts to ensure their
security.Additionally, when users attempt to access domains containing
one of the 3.5 million malware threats recognized by its system, Hotspot
Shield provides an alert and allows users to safely view a snapshot of
the page they’re trying to access.
