Not at all, this setup involved 4 VPN links, via 4 different providers with packets splitting via each of them to prevent reconstruction.

Standard VPN is not a protection, since ISP needs to store all the raw data according to retention policies. This solution aims to solve that problem. Also, most of VPN providers needs to pass the encryption key under condition of court order, making VPN useless. In this case, even with court order reconstruction is close to impossible.
