Interesting poll 👀
It's always about increasing the cost for intelligence services to monitor you. For your average citizen even without vpn there won't be a problem since the government just doesn't care for individuals. If you are at a point that the government might take an interest in you its key to make the cost as big as possible to monitor you. Since for them its always a money thing. If you are not worth the trouble they will not pursue and this can be because the cost might be to high since you are using the vpn. Maybe if you weren't using vpn the cost would be lower and they might have decided to follow trough. You also have to keep in mind that the government mostly use non-digital ways to find you. You have a job , you go to a grocery store , you do cash withrawels or pay with your card. Any tiny mistep in this process and if they really want to find you they will find you. I think we hyperfocus on the digital side. The most interesting use-case is for people living in regimes where the individual does get tracked. It can be a tool to circumvent this and express their opinions or undertake certain actions. A big surveillance state cost alot of money and how more the people obscure their digital footprint the higher this cost can get. To a point where the cost might be to high and lead to the downfall of a regime.
Any extra steps to protect yourself are always a good thing.
Yes, but it has to be more then just a vpn. No point if you are scared of the government but then allow google to track your location lol
