The company rolled out Google One's VPN feature back in 2020, but you could only access it if you're paying for a plan with at least 2TB of storage, which costs at least $10 a month.
...
it's discontinuing the feature because "people simply weren’t using it."

Gee, I wonder why... πŸ™„

I've got Google One for the storage but there was no way I wanted all my internet activity routed through the Google servers

The only time I used it was when a hotel wifi was blocking access to my VPN but Google's worked fine

You had your files in Google One storage though.

Yes but I individually choose what goes in there it's not the fire hose of data that is everything I browse
