Fwiw I use ProtonVPN and I've never seen that message before; I browse mostly on mobile, but do on the full-site too (lemmy's nsfw communities are a barren wasteland for what I'm looking for). Both logged in and not.
I guess it may be a combination. I use Mullvad VPN + Mullvad browser. Maybe they only show it if the can't fingerprint you enough? I.e by a combination of IP, and your browser + extensions + tracking cookies fingerprint?
