What is the purpose of a VPN?

To obscure the traffic of your whole machine?

To obscure 99% of the traffic on your machine since it's from your browser?

To bypass censorship for a website or two?

For me, yeah all of the above. I don't trust my ISP with my info, they're famously corrupt where I live. And I watch region gated content on programs that aren't my browser. And I use 3rd party frontends for social media. And I share torrents. My browser is only 20% of my traffic at most on any device.
