I’ll bite. I use a VPN every day, and while I will admit freely that it helps for less copyright friendly ventures, it has probably saved my privacy quite a few times, as I am almost always on public networks. In addition, I imagine many users in countries with more stringent censorship than the UK likely need a VPN to carry out their daily lives. True, a VPN can help people hide their identity to do criminal things, but there’s a reason they call ski masks that way: because they have a specific but sometimes vital use.
