Its nice not having to deal with trackers all the time so yeah its something to pay for if you want an extra bit of privacy and peace of mind. Just like PAYING for an email service versus using a free one , I know that is anathema to some folks probably just remember with any free service you're product ...

I use a VPN exclusively for work (OpenVPN) and for personal stuff Aura VPN (on my smartphone and Computers.) Really frustrating though that some banks and even legit shopping sites do not permit using a VPN. Another issue that is bigger though, is the way many companies (like restaurants) want you to input your phone and e-mail. All they do is turn around and sell the info to anyone. There are huge issues with our internet, a simple VPN will not eliminate all hacking.

Banks particularly because your "vpn" might be just a listening device middleman. They're trying to protect you.
What's funny is how many are set up by the CIA and NSA to track traffic. Tor nodes too.
