I'm very skeptical that 25% of internet consumers use a VPN. I'd be more easily convinced that 25% of internet traffic is via VPN, but even that seems far fetched. I'm also extremely skeptical that you'd find accurate results on a random site's smattering of website resources.

And the vast majority of it is to access geoip restricted content, to get around government filters and for corporate use.

Pretty sure 90% of that is people wanting to watch geo-restricted Netflix content...

I’m not sure if asking TheBestVPN.com how many people use VPNs is going to get you a reliable answer.

All sources are linked at the bottom of the article.

Try to find the one that confirms that. I did and failed.

But how many of them use it to bypass geoblocking or to bypass censorship? Those who bypass censorship presumably also value privacy, but from their government and not necessarily from corporations.
