The only VPNs which are not owned by marketing companies are Mullvad and Proton. The largest VPNs are owned by Kape Technologies, renamed because their prior company name distributed malware, whose top people are former Israeli military, so I wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw them. I would never use a free VPN except for Proton, and Proton's paid VPN has a lot more nodes and features.

I know this is an old comment I'm replying to, but what about AirVPN? They don't seem untrustworthy and/or a honeypot.
Are they? :/
I'll vouch for airvpn. I've been using it for probably six years now with no issues. When using wireguard I can download Linux isos at 500mbps.
I use Mullvad
Is it free?
Your OS doesn't matter when picking a VPN provider.
Others have mentioned plenty of good options.
It does matter in terms of ease of use. Some have apps, some don't. A non-linux-native might have difficulties with the latter.
