by this logic any VPN would put you in the same basket as other users
even a premium one could give you the same IP as a cheater
It depends on what VPN services you are using because premium like NordVPN account gives you a dedicated IP assign to you that is not shared with other user. Purchasing a premium VPN that share IP among premium subscribers is useless and waste money because it’s not a complete privacy since you share with others.
I believe most of the premium VIP offers dedicated IP since I use multiple VPN before with this same feature.

https://nordvpn.com/features/dedicated-ip/how a shared ip wouldn't be complete privacy? it would make it even harder to track specific things, don't you think?
a dedicated IP will have other advantages like technical stuff with servers, probably, not having to solve captchas many times in a row, this kind of thing.
what do you think?
Both have their strong points but for those that are looking to get the best privacy possible then a shared IP seems like a better idea, as if several persons are using the same IP and the VPN has no logs then it is not possible to know which user did what.
However a dedicated IP is great for those which want to watch some streaming content online and use other similar services, as in that way your IP will not be flagged and you can watch pretty much whatever you may want.
