Exactly. Using a VPN can improve your anonymity, provided you trust your VPN operator more than the infrastructure you're using. But many VPN vendors claim a VPN is essential to provide security, which isn't true in the slightest, and Proton shouldn't be stooping to that level. There are plenty of good reasons to use a VPN that don't involve illegal activities, but it's hardly essential for the average person.
