Don't like Big Tech and the government spying on you. Visit ExpressVPN.com slash Ben. We'll get to all the news in just one moment. First, let me just ask a quick question.

It takes just one click to protect all your devices, which is why ExpressVPN is rated number one by Business Insider. So stop letting Big Tech grab all your data. Instead, secure your internet with the VPN.I trust. For online protection, visit ExpressVPN.com slash pen. That's EX, P, R, ESS, VPN.com.
