People forget what public means.

Also most (important sites anyway) use https these days and that prevent against manipulation or sniffing.
Important sites even use pinning which make a modification impossible.

Anyway I would never do sensible stuff on a public network.
For rest using a encrypted DNS service is enough and Android can do that natively.

So why should anyone use a VPN for that which get the data and more? Can't get that in my head.
*Discussion start* :D

I use VPN(Ekspress) almost all the time, but sometimes when I have to download something fast, I don't.
