MITM attacks are not relevant to the majority of users today, as browsers use encryption for the majority of websites, and both iOS and Android require apps to use encryption. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/preventing-insecure-network-connections https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2019/12/an-update-on-android-tls-adoption.html Other attacks, such as vulnerable software are not usually stopped by VPNs and require a firewall.
