Certainly not. When I tried free Proton I could get up to 600Mbps. That is very usable.

Furthermore, some can be purchased via other methods like cash (Mullvad, IVPN, Proton). I am sure they can buy postage stamps and send mail.

And Mullvad vouchers are also sold physically in few stores based on their website, though only in Sweden (Inet, Webhallen) and Germany (ProxyStore).

Lastly, kids can also have their own debit cards too, or just steal their parent's. OR, there's stuff like Visa gift cards.
