Generally I don't consider it a very helpful term. It's too easy to have inconsistent meaning.

VPNs and proxys do basically the same thing. But a VPN encryptes and also can be easily monetised. A proxy Firstly scares people because it looks and sounds like hacker shit. Secondly would be more helpful for getting around government regulations. If anyone cared that much (which they dont.) The government's are basically doing a performance and cheering for themselves. Without actually doing much of anything. There's still plenty of porn sites you can access in these places. Nobody cares.

Flying cars are a nice idea until you realize that the logistics and aerodynamics don't math out well.

Actually less. Because if you check Google for VPN searches the day those laws go into effect. It's up by like 40%.
