You can

But most people will not go to those lengths, esp not kids.

All it takes is one kid to work it out and it'll be common knowledge in that school within a week.

Doesn't proton offer a free vpn with limits?

Also, a vpn is pretty cheap. I wouldn't say that it's kids that would be using it, it would be adults who don;t want to upload their picture.

Yes however they are literally move all their infrastructure to the UK so they won’t be an option soon.

Windscribe is a thin too, but since they are Canadian and Canada is making stupid political deals with the US lately, it can’t be relied on either.

Yeah it's pretty good, you just can't torrent with the free tier and sometimes it's slow because a lot of people are using it.

But it's very useful for the short time I use it.
