>In my estimation the main reason people use VPNs is for pr*n and piracy
I get the piracy part, but why would someone want/need VPN for pr0n? That's not a gotcha or snark, I don't understand why folks would "need" vpn for that (assuming it's not* non-consensual, which includes hidden cameras and/or animals or children -- neither of whom can actually provide meaningful consent) as long as it's legal.
In my estimation the main reason people use VPNs is for pr*n and piracy and they may not want to just flat out admit it.
