Would Linus use it to purchase google glasses if that was the case?

Hey guys! I was wondering if it is safe to use Hotspot Shield to shop online? Because when I make the purchase I will be using my VISA, in which I have to put certain details, not only off the VISA card, but like where I live and stuff so the product I buy can be shipped to me obviously. But is it safe? Will I have to worry about Hotspot Shield, encrypting my VISA details, details of where I live and then using my VISA card to do what they want with it? Or is it something I don't have to worry about? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advanced! :D

I wouldn't worry about it because it's a fairly wellsized company. If the purchase doesn't require you to use hotspot shield to make it, i wouldn't. The less variables when doing transactions like that the better.
