I should have said “get a VPN” instead of “buy a VPN”, because as far as I know - there are no major benefits to paying for it. I have used both Proton (free) and Mullvad (paid), and found no difference in speed. I once got mullvad subscription as a present and am sticking with it because I don’t like how heavy the Proton marketing strategies are. There are also Proton mail alternatives, especially Tutanota which also has a free option. But as I said, it becomes overwhelming when you start comparing the options in depth instead of just picking one.
