Don't have high expectations on your VPNs, even the strongest of them all can't always clean your tracks, use VPN to commit strong crime they will still find you and burst your ass, lower your expectations around VPN, privacy they say? I can't stop laughing.
VPN can't protect your ass when it comes to crypto, privacy protection have nothing to do with keeping your private keys or recovery seed offline, you have been fooled if you believe this, keep your keys to yourself and yourself only, they are even more secured if you keep them away from the Internet which is why I always write my seed phrases in a book.
Even a PC that's running an Antivirus still get viruses, let's not even go there, some viruses are so tough that they will sneak around into your PC and you will be thinking that your Antivirus is protecting you.
