I am old fashioned. So I would use a VPN if I want to prevent my landlord from getting a cease and desist letter from a lawyer when I download warez. Mostly audio books, and textbooks, but also movies and music.
Ie, it's the use case where you Pirate all the media, and use a VPN as a security bandaid against anti-post-scarcity busybodies.
