VPN shields you from lots but is not full proof. Nothing really is unless you are well versed in Linux (which if you’re asking, I’d surmise that you’re not). Even then you may not be totally protected.
Tor is also an option, but as I’ve heard most of that is tracked also. Knowing Linux on tor with a vpn is your best shot, but even then there are thousands of lines of script the usually make no sense to even the best of us.
The short answer after you’ve read my tldr is that this is mostly static to them. Don’t promote violence (which if you are one of us you,won’t) and you will not be given a second thought.
