"Ah, an American, welcome!"

Everyone should be using a VPN. Of course, "Which VPNs can you trust?" ends up being a valid question and I'm sure that landscape will continue to evolve for the foreseeable future.

On a sidenote but regarding VPN's, I have never encountered anyone who could make an argument against choosing Mullvad.

If you have very specific needs, there might be something better than it. But no one ever got burned by choosing Mullvad.

If everyone should use a VPN, everyone should also use a browser that obfuscates all this personal data.
