Until you realize your vpn provider can see everything you do
Could always go to excessive measures, your own cloud hosted VPN node to hop to an external provider or similar. Unless you're a major target nobody wants to deal with multiple providers and jurisdictions.
If you find a provider shady enough not to give a damn, then yes. Otherwise you have the same problem as before
Or you can use the old trick of hiding a small computer in a fake charger and leaving it plugged in at a nearby business that you don't like.
I'm pretty sure mullvad will let you do this and they were pretty highly recommended last I checked
But their business model is solely based on not disclosing your info. If they do, most of all for just some silly comments on an Internet forum, be sure they are going to fail.
Any VPN you choose should have a 'no-log' policy that's been third party verified
It's not just that they don't disclose it, it should be that they don't have it
Split tunnels are a thing friend
