Well, not really with these, per se. My own VPN, Wireguard, routes back through my pihole service to double down on it’s filtering. For the most, I’m not trying to obfuscate my ip. If I wanted to do that I’d use tor or something. I just don’t want my traffic to be easily snooped on when I’m connected to wifi that isn’t mine.
Comment on Nord VPN tv commercials are incredibly misleading

And HTTPS does that. It’s encrypted.

Yes but I use more than web traffic stuff on my phone.

Not everything is. HTTP and unencrypted SNI are still around.

Name a popular service that isn’t encrypted but using it might expose you in a legitimate way.
