Using a VPN isn't really going to help you that much in terms of security though. VPNs are mostly for privacy purposes; though I'm not sure with SurfShark. I'd personally recommend Mullvad.

one thing to keep in mind: any one of them could be a honeypot. that's the danger of centralized, opaque services.

i used to swear by PIA because their no-logging policy was tested twice in court, but then they got bought by kape technologies, who is known for collecting and selling user data. https://www.reddit.com/r/PrivateInternetAccess/comments/e0kq68/longtime_pia_user_here_run_dont_walk_away_from/

mullvad and windscribe seem to be the recommended alternatives now.

another option is to route your traffic over tor. wasabi wallet does this by default.
