A higher price point isn't proof of anything.
If a provider can sell a VPN for $1/month as a loss leader and make $5/user after selling all data, what keeps a $10/month VPN from making >$15 doing the exact same thing?

My point was that they charge more for the subscription to avoid putting themselves in a situation where they feel pressure to sell user data to make up for a bad quarter of sales.
