I use it to get around website article limits when they try to force me to sign up.

Websites with actual web devs block and track usage with ip instead of cookies/cache, nothing a vpn can't stop tho. More reliable to is to the way back machine on archive.org. Can also use a browsers reader mode to get around it too sometimes.

Tracking residential IPs today is useless. They change often and some ISPs allow you to force change at any time. You don't need a VPN for that.
