I kind of think that it's more likely to result in expanded VPN use.

    VPNs are more or less a commodity; the service is pretty interchangeable among providers, and so the market is competitive. I think that it'd be hard for someone to charge a lot more for a service and get many customers. Too easy to just use one of the other providers.
