It was absolutely selling people that don't know better that they need 24x7 VPN.

Each of those links bounce through pcmag with referrers, I strongly suspect they get kickbacks from all 5 providers listed.

They pretend that VPN is going to magically protect you from google and apple tracking your surfing habbits and purchases when your IP isn't even the most identifiable thing you're using.
