What cases are you talking about? My general understanding is that if the VPN provider does not keep any logs, all that is left is timing / bandwidth correlation. If the endpoint you are connecting to isn't compromised and you connect to a high traffic node wouldn't this be essentially impossible? Unless you do some user error stuff like logging into accounts tied to your public persona?

> VPN provider does not keep any logs,

Thats an assumption. the source is out of date https://vpntesting.com/no-logs/

but basically the point is, you are indellibly linking your machine to a service.

The difference between that an normal internet is because of NAT, you can argue that at home it wasn't your machine, it was someone else on the network.
