  Multiple middlemen are better than just one. Also, you can test its effectiveness.

    Using a VPN means that all your traffic is routed through a possibly malicious actor.

  Yeah, a middleman you get to choose. That’s a huge improvement. There are plenty of trustworthy VPN providers.

  So use a trustworthy middleman? Surely you can find someone more trustworthy than advertising companies?

  You can set up wireguard vpn on a tiny instance in Amazon or Google, and bounce traffic through that one. Then you control what gets logged (Amazon may have logs over all outgoing connections from all instances somewhere though).
