Don&amp;#x27;t expect a VPN to save you.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m not condoning piracy, but VPNs are generally a foolproof way to avoid DMCA letters from your ISP. Privacy means something different to every individual, everyone&amp;#x27;s threat model is different. And many models can benefit from a VPN; journalists, activists, and many others might find benefit from using a VPN.</text></comment>
