Techniques to rate-adjust data usage on mobile devices using a virtual private network are described. In one embodiment, an apparatus may include a processor circuit, and an application component operative on the processor circuit to present a link to third party data, receive a control directive to follow the link, and to request to access the third party data. The apparatus may also include a client virtual private network (VPN) component operative on the processor circuit to communicate with a server having a server VPN component, receive the request to access the third party data from the application component, determine whether the accessing is rate-adjusted, and connect to a source of the third party data via the server VPN component. Other embodiments are described and claimed. |
