Not quite... The video covers this, as does our overview:

Using a VPN in cases where you're using your real-life or well-known identity online is unlikely to be useful. Doing so may trigger spam and fraud detection systems, such as if you were to log into your bank's website.

You could read our Tor overview or @jonah@lemmy.one's post on our forum (which you should totally join)

Did you watch the video?

From the first two paragraphs of the article:

Its a 500 word article...
