If I download a VPN, install it, get a connection and choose my Preferences, will my browsers (Safari and Firefox) simply automatically access the web from within the VPN server or is there more to it? Thank you.

From what I understand, it is "kind of" that "simple". In actually, I believe the VPN "service/software" actual utilizes various servers to keep your internet browsing aa innocuous as possible.
