Is a VPN necessary when using Truly Roaming internet in Uruguay?

Updated April 22, 2026

While Uruguay maintains a generally open internet environment, using a VPN is always a smart practice for digital nomads, especially when connecting via public Wi-Fi. Truly Roaming provides secure mobile data, but if you switch to a cafe's Wi-Fi for a long video call, a VPN adds an extra layer of privacy and security. It's about protecting your work and personal data, regardless of the local internet laws.
