This option = no vpn network

This option is good if you dont trust public vpn gateways.

Skype or others softwares which are close source programs and creators may spy on you by identify your PC (not your PC location) and report it. VPN cant help with it. It can help you to hide your IP.

Nemesiz, thank you very much.
A have new questions.
1) How can I safely hide my PC's data?
What settings I need to change or hide an how can I do it?
Can using CCtools, ID Blaster, RMOSChange help me?

2) If I will use SoftEther VPN Client on home PC + SoftEther VPN server on my anonymous VPS/VDS, what are the risks?
Which data the VPS provider can receive?
Does the VPS provider sees traffic from SoftEther VPN Server to the sites?
VPS provider may have logs as I configure the SoftEther VPN Server - my login and password. Or not?
Can VPS provider access my SoftEther VPN Server?
And can the VPS provider to determine where the physical address of SoftEther VPN Client?
Thanks.

All of them 'YES'.
I think you shouldn't trust Skype for your life.
