I disagree, I think it would be highly beneficial if everyone ran a VPN exactly for the reasons you describe — websites and services online have no business knowing who I am or where I am. We can hope of a better tomorrow where browser fingerprinting, geo-IP and other such things are a thing of the past. Every step we take in that direction is a step towards a better future. (For that matter, every device I own sits behind Mullvad.)
