There are a large number of VPNs, commercial or otherwise, that someone can use. Where I live, I have a very small number of ISPs to choose from and they would all have my billing information if I used them. Some of the VPNs offer connections in other countries, and some of them claim not to log. The VPN's ISP would see my data move around, but wouldn't have my billing information. The VPN would, but if it's commercial I can likely sue them if they do something egregious with it. In my opinion, VPNs help more than hurt privacy, assuming you choose a reputable one to use. If a person wants anonymity, then go for Tor or Freenet.
