An alternative to using a VPN as your "privacy shield" could be the I2P network https://lemmy.world/post/19661215

I don't torrent so this may not be ideal.

Very few torrents make use of I2P as far as I know, given that people have to specifically enable it when using a torrent client such as qBittorrent.
