A VPN is essential for your own data security when connecting to public wifi hotspots.
I've had great results with NordVPN for accessing streaming services worldwide.
I've had great results with Express VPN for streaming services worldwide and for Google services in China.
Both work great when using public wifi like airports, hotels, cafes.
Both NordVPN and Express VPN have publicly scrutinised privacy and security policies and are a pretty safe bet.
I would never use a free VPN. You should never use any VPN without researching their security reputation. There have been many scam apps that redirect you to ads, inject malware, track you (and sell your activity data to advertisers), and don't even encrypt your data.
There have been cases of VPN apps that used victims phones as botnets for things like spam, eating up your data allowance, and ones with ransomware that locked victims phones and demanded payment.
Pick carefully.
