If you ever use public Wi-Fi at, say, a hotel or a coffee shop, where I often work and as many of my listeners do, you’re often sending data over an open network, meaning no encryption at all.A great way to ensure that all of your data is encrypted and can’t be easily read by hackers is by using&nbsp;<a href="https://www.expressvpn.com/tim" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ExpressVPN</a>. All you need to do is download the ExpressVPN app on your computer or smartphone and then use the Internet just as you normally would. You click one button in the ExpressVPN app to secure 100% of your network data.&nbsp;Use my link&nbsp;<a href="https://www.expressvpn.com/tim" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ExpressVPN.com/Tim</a>&nbsp;today and get an extra three months free on a one-year package!*If you enjoy the podcast, would you please consider&nbsp;<a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-tim-ferriss-show/id863897795?mt=2" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">leaving a short&nbsp;review&nbsp;on Apple Podcasts</a>/iTunes?&nbsp;It takes less than 60 seconds, and it really makes a difference in helping to convince hard-to-get guests.
