I think the key point is the lack of clarification. VPN's that spy on their users gives credence to outright ban all VPN's, which would be of obvious benefit to the US government. It should also be pointed out that, as a consumer, you can't prove that your VPN service isn't spying on you. Ideally, you should set up a VPN on your own server using secure defaults. Then let your less techie friends/family use it when they're on public WiFi.
