I'll add that VPN are blocked from Wikipedia due to the fact that vandals would use them to evade detection and blocking. It is possible to request an exemption to this policy but it requires demonstrating a particular need to use a VPN, and a general need of security probably will not qualify; exemptions are generally meant for users in countries where internet use is restricted(like China) that have demonstrated a need and good contribution history. If you register an account, your IP is not visible to the general public, although certain trusted and vetted Wikipedia users called Checkusers and some admins have access to this information. 331dot (talk) 20:51, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
