    With a VPN you are just shifting the attack surface

      from the ISP likely to analyze my traffic to a VPN provider who didn’t provide any data after being raided by the police because they didn’t store any

        I would still not trust them as you have no control over what happens server side.

          That is just as true of your ISP, who when raided by the police will happily send it all over in a jiffy.

            Exactly, its not a matter of trust. You can’t verify VPN providers more than you can verify ISPs.

            The best option is to use https and encrypted DNS.
