vpn's are not what you think. They just more your traffic somewhere else. Honestly just use https only and you'll be fine

ISP says hello, seeing which sites, videos you visit and sharing this info with government. Reputable VPN's exist. Link to reputable resource for comparison.

They don't. They can link your IP to your identity and they might be able to collect DNS queries. Nothing more realistically.
