Well privacy doesn’t necessarily mean anonymity. They are different things and have different solutions. A VPN gives you privacy but doesn’t automatically make you anonymous. I think the other comment has a good point that VPNs are overselling their products. And it’s true, defense-in-depth is the proper way to go about it, and not to rely on one thing to solve all your problems.
Privacy is knowing who i am but not what I’m doing.
Anonymity is knowing what I’m doing but not who I am.
