I still feel like I’m not taking privacy seriously enough. I haven’t gotten a VPN yet because that requires pay and I am too lazy to try to get money. (I wish there were free (in pricing) VPNs.)

    Off topic, but it is worth letting you know that in 99% of cases, a VPN is going to do nothing. There are still many other ways to identify you other than your ip address, and the only difference is that instead of your ISP taking your internet logs, your VPN is taking internet logs.

      For me, one of several reasons I used a VPN is because the absence of dedicated servers in a video game I play can lead to creepy users getting a player’s IP address and DDoSing them or creepily telling the entire server what city/region a player lives in.
