Want to keep your porn viewing habits private?Tahong Pornhub can help.

Pornhub is launching a new VPN service on Thursday. VPNhub, according to a statement from VP Corey Price, can be used for private, anonymous internet usage and features encrypted connections that utilize "1,000 servers in 15+ countries" and offer "unlimited bandwidth."

If you're actually a frequent user of Pornhub, this makes perfect sense. And even if you don't use Pornhub (right, of course), it still works as another viable, free option to add to the list of VPN choices.

There's a premium plan, too, featuring no ads, faster connection speeds, and more countries for logging in. That fancy version will run you $12.99/month or $90 ($7.50/month) for a 12-month subscription.

It's an interesting move for Pornhub because, well, nothing about the VPN service requires you to watch porn.

Sure, it's perfectly aimed at those who frequently visit the site over a shared internet connection in places like their homes or hotels (as opposed to, say, a Starbucks). But there's no reason you can't use it even if you don't care about adult-themed sites.

I gave the beta version a whirl, and it certainly seemed to work a-okay for me, exactly like a VPN should.

SEE ALSO: Do you need a VPN? Quite possibly. Here's why.

Of course, protecting user privacy -- and the user's data -- is important business, and convincing users who may be skeptical of a service connected to a porn site to trust VPNhub may be a hurdle, whether it's warranted or not.

In April, security issues with several popular VPNs made headlines as it was discovered they were leaking data due to Chrome.

It's a good reason to maintain frequent checks on your VPN to make sure it stays up to snuff, no matter which service you use.
