Do you have any recommendations for VPN providers?

This one's frequently suggested: https://mullvad.net/en/

You can pay by cash or cryptocurrencies, you don't need to provide them with your email address, headquartered in the EU, Mozilla's VPN is a partnership with them, open source clients with reproducible builds, WireGuard support.

Also, no logins, just a single string of numbers as your account number. So no one can go to mullvad and say "gimme the deets for [e-mail]", which is nice.

Just to catch up, thank you, I used mullvad and been happy. Connecting to Germany or Netherlands is no problem for speed.

I personally have used two: cryptostorm and mullvad. Both were good, mullvad was better (and has regular independent audits: see, e.g. https://cure53.de/pentest-report_mullvad_2020_v2.pdf)

Also thank you! I went with Mullvad and it has been good!

Just switch between different ones every few months or so. Try to select some, which are not obviously nefarious against you, and might be going bankrupt soon, with the hopes of them not keeping much logs or records afterwards.
