    I don’t use a VPN because my government has acknowledged that an IP address cannot identify what individual was using it.

      I know that government prosecutions for fraud against government use IP addresses

      The IP address identifies the company or home the fraud was done from, the account the money went to identifies the individual

      If breaking the law and able to afford to make it difficult for prosecutors, it’s probably best to make it difficult for the prosecutors, we may have an activist pro copyright holder government in future and logs are forever (or 5 years)
