@d a few examples that I commonly see:
- you should use your ISP raw because we have one case where a sketchy VPN company was used in court in 30 years of their existence despite 80 cases per day of people getting caught because they didn't
- using a VPN to access tor is dangerous because of <completely incoherent reason>, despite the fact that tor traffic is evident to your ISP and using it a lot will definitely get you flagged
- hosting your own VPN in a data center is more secure than mixing traffic with others despite you basically owning the computer that the traffic is coming from
- don't bother using privacy browsers because there's a hypothetical vulnerability somewhere. You might as well just use chrome on windows
