Vpn's aren't that expensive, the one I use is $55 for 2 years.

3 years (and more since some of my friends used my link to sign up) of NordVPN for 78 dollars.

Yeah, but that's still an extra expense. Most people using Google VPN were using it because they were already paying for Google One.

It's $2 a month.... I think you'll be fine.

Which is that?

Surfshark, I don't know much about VPN's but I've been told they are pretty secure and don't share your info. I mainly use VPN's to pirate shows and movies and for that it's worked well, havnt gotten any letters from my ISP.

I'm not endorsing them just to be clear as I am not knowledgeable enough to know if it's good or not but it was recommended by someone I trust with that stuff like 3 years ago.
