Its all about your threat model and the security/privacy level you want to achieve. If you don't want cell tower triangulation to give away your location, this is a great free option. But VPN's only alter the IP address given to websites, even with a WiFi only setup if you don't disable WiFi scanning, that'll give your location away too.
