For the normal person vpns are useless outside of getting around region blocks (Netflix, and such). The main use for a vpn is to create an encrypted tunnel between you and the host your connecting to this allows traffic to stay secure incase your sending sensitive information like credit cards, ext
You have people at your home or work who you don’t want seeing the websites you visit (more common at work than home). You’ll still probably have to explain to them why you’re using a VPN though.
You regularly pirate things and don’t want your ISP complaining about it
Other than that, a VPN isn’t going to help you. All the stuff they advertise about security and stuff is BS, because it’d be bad for business if they advertised the real reasons people use VPNs.

I use it to get around black outs on mlb tv lol
Bypass region locks is about it. Anyone state sponsored groups of worth just use Heuristics to track you rather than an origin location.
