I am not sure why they would push to use a vpn but maybe a vested interest.
I also think herd mentality plays apart in what people tend to do.
They are great if you are using a public network, torrenting or want to access geo blocked content.
Also if your isp blocks access to content then definitely worth using.
But if you use the full encryption measures on a VPN, it will slow your speed down.
I would sooner have one when I need it but I rarely use one.
Also it depends on what jurisdiction and piracy laws you live under plays a factor.
Also paranoia with some I guess.
