For a moment, I thought VPN's were the answer to this, for privacy-conscious people in India, but do such VPN's exist that are financially accessible to people from India that don't go through ISP's that do the same thing?

Privacy conscious in India? It wouldn't even go up to as high as 0.000001%

OperaVPN is free on iPhone - I started using it recently and it's pretty great.

They're surely mining your data. Why else would they do this ?

I have no love lost for this guy - or his company - but to be fair, why can this not be thought of as a strategy to acquire (a mother lode of) future (paying) users? Kind of bait and switch? I would say the investment of 3 or 4 months of free service is negligible as compared to the long-term revenues that this strategy would bring in.

Any benefit/s derived via possible deep data mining would only be the icing on the cake.
