Use IP Rotation in Norton VPN to update your IP address randomly
The IP Rotation feature in Norton VPN automatically changes your IP address regularly to help prevent tracking, avoid targeted ads, and increase anonymity. It improves your anonymity by masking your real IP address and making it harder for third parties to track or profile you. It can also help you access more diverse and accurate data and content online, as some websites may show different results based on your IP address. The IP address will automatically change every 30 seconds.
Key Considerations for IP Rotation
