However VPNs are exactly the same as ISPs, especially when it comes to actions forced by the government in the jurisdiction they are in.
you're doing blanket statements. this highly depends on the provider
If you think your VPN provider is more immune to legal authorities than your ISP you are deluding yourself.
if you think that every VPN in the world handles legal situations the same way regardless of jurisdiction then you are a total nonce
Which is why good vpns are hosted in countries with extremely high privacy laws. And some can even be bought and used without giving any personal info. And why most vpns are RAM only and literally can't log any records.
But you knew this before you spouted off, right?
