I personally wouldn't take the chance. Mullvad is €5 a month, and is worth it to me. My ISP completely shut off my service before ever giving me a notification. I had to completely restart service after going full Karen and blaming it on "my kids." I would do a few searches and find posts or info relevant to your area or ISP.
+1 for Mullvad! They were raided with a search warrant by Swedish Police who ended up leaving empty handed because the customer data they wanted simply does not exist
How's the speed on Mullvad? I have gigabit currently and don't really want to compromise the speed of my connection
Incredibly good. You will probably lose like 100mbps compared to without, at 1gbps.
