To be absolutely clear about this: I DON'T use my account on a professional service!!! All I do is, that I use a VPS hosted by Hetzner as MY, ONLY MY (!!!) VPN and for other stuff [...]!!!
@HFS8cxqkzepybKtyG4dV: Please know that VPS,VMs or dedicated server in data center are regarded as a professional service by most sites as you can *share* one account with multiple user. Such servers often have a multiple faster connection than your home connection and therefore can be abused to share the account with friends/other users.
Most sites will use IP lookups to check if the IP belongs to known VPN or end customer IP connection (cable , DSL, LTE...)...
