You conflate VPN providers have an incentive to store no logs with it's impossible to verify whether VPN providers store logs. It's like trusting your friend to keep a secret. They promise not to write down what you say, but you can't be sure. You accept that risk in your threat model, and that's fine. But newcomers should judge that risk themselves. I feel like “Don't worry bro, they don't keep logs.” is an inappropriate response to people that're about to commit a crime that can land them in jail.
