I've seen posted in the community forum, a similar question in 2013 - but as its now 2015, and times change.
 
I feel its a service element lacking from Webroot. Any constructive thoughts ?

We have a full proxy option for business:

However a VPN isn't really something that we plan to offer - it isn't our speciality and there's others out there better situated to offer this service.

I as a casual user would not really look for a VPN service and I am not too sure if a number of game clients would comply with one I know how temperamental blizzards battle.net is for things like that atm :S

Well casual users might want VPNs in the future if online surveillance keeps going the way it does.  There's plenty of good ones out there - it's just not a market we have an interest in investing in.  We'll stick to what we are good at 🙂
