There are legitimate business needs for appearing to come from a specific or unique address other than your own external IP.

They also do not log so there is a limit to the backtrace, stops at them.

If your data contains PII then it's no different than not using a VPN and sending in the clear.

With Nord you are encrypted from end to end.
