For the average person, data sales aren't the worry. Heck their phone is already recording everything. The worry is straight up criminal enterprise, like keylogging bank passwords. If the VPN company is doing stuff like that then they're going to eat a RICO charge. Most people really don't care that their data gets sold.
And then just setting a private DNS and checking "the little lock at your address bar" fully prevents any digital sniffing of your credentials. No VPN needed.
