Google Project Fi ‘Enhanced Network’ beta brings free always-on VPN

Google is extending the Project Fi VPN to all connections. The enhanced network also enables a fast, seamless connection by intelligently switching between Wi-Fi and cellular. Google says that when you enable the enhanced network, all of your mobile and Wi-Fi traffic will be encrypted and securely sent through our virtual private network (VPN) on every network you connect to. This includes Google's VPN that is designed so that your traffic isn’t tied to your Google account or phone number. Project Fi's enhanced network automatically detects when your Wi-Fi connection becomes unusable and switches to cellular data and will have a seamless connection on the go. Google claims that it has reduced the time without a working connection by up to 40%. The company says that it will be rolling out the enhanced network later this week to Fi-compatible phones running Android P. You can enable it anytime in Fi Network Tools in the Project Fi app. Source
