“most of them are (if advertised heavily)” is quite a claim without data to back it up.
At least for the one I tested none of them sent additional traffic over my connection. That’s just one data point and I only looked to ones with port forwarding but still far away from your claim.
There are a shitload of VPN tests out there and testing id your connection gets used by third parties for not traffic is even possible for a layperson.
Please stop fear mongering without remedies or specifics.
Eh, “thing I really want, but provided for free” combined with “thing we really want you to use, for free” -
We should maybe put fear mongering directly on that, I think. Free things, that cost real money to provide, that cost no money to use - we should maybe fear monger a little.

Yeah that’s way more specific and can get behind - I don’t even test any “free” VPNs.
I didn’t intend to imply that VPNs are free.
Good chance I’m just annoyed and arguing with the wrong person, probably even about the wrong thing lol.
My mistake. I appreciate you.
