Tunnelbear has a free 2GB a month one - not enough for a lot of use probably, but an easy to test if a paid VPN will do what you need.

If you want to be part of a bot net sure.

I've not had any issues with them. It's a pretty user friendly VPN app, and having a small allowance you can test it with before buying is pretty handy. Most other VPNs you have to pay up before you can test them AFAIK.

The point is not about the app not working, the point is that many free VPN apps rent out your own IP address, often malicious.

Look for "residential proxy providers" and somehow these providers can offer you millions of IP addresses.

Windscribe also has 2Gb free or 10Gb free per month if you provide and email and let them spam you.
