Free services like tor or tribler doesn't for most streaming nor gaming, cloudflare's free VPN service works in some cases. Paid VPN also helps for increased government spying and allows you to stream and game without lag or bandwidth limitations. I use a couple of terabytes per month and have not had any problems over the years. I mostly use VPN to prevent users on my localnet from binding IP to GPS coordinates. I don't know when this changed but today this is default behavior for many mobile devices.
I'm paying ~$3 USD at the moment. I'm considering to stop using VPN altogether (no more colleagues or clients on my network due to lockdown) or changing to something like mullvad which is €5 to support companies that do open source.
