The parent is transparently concern trolling so it's not worth engaging with, but to answer your question it's important to remember that VPN providers have access to all of your traffic. Even if you use HTTPS and other encrypted standards you can probably infer a lot of personal information about a user by just monitoring when and where they connect to.
It's even arguably a bit worse than an ISP because any given internet connection may be shared across many users, and users often move between several connections managed by different entities. VPN on the other hand are generally personal and keeps tracking you regardless of whether you use your home connection, mobile data or a free WiFi connection.
