Basically, all services that offer free VPNs also have paid packages. Free generally has certain limits and the primary purpose is for the user to try the service before purchasing. This can be considered a form of promotion and it does not sound logical that in that case they have "hidden" features. I guess they should show themselves in the best light and attract new users.
I'm not refuting your statement, I think you're right, but what I stated is an ideal scenario.

Indeed, many services offer free versions of their products to entice users to explore their features before committing to a paid subscription. While this approach can be beneficial for users, it's essential to approach free offerings with caution.

It's true that not all providers have hidden intentions; however, in the realm of cybersecurity, skepticism is warranted. Some free VPN providers might indeed have hidden agendas, and it's crucial for users to understand the potential risks.

When considering a VPN service, whether free or paid, it's a wise practice to thoroughly review their Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. These documents shed light on what data is collected, how it's used, and whether it's shared with third parties. Additionally, reading reviews and experiences shared by other users can provide valuable insights into the service's actual performance and reliability. Some VPN providers don't deliver what they really promise.
