The main real reason non-work related VPN is used it to safeguard against eavesdropping when using somebodies or some companies wireless access point and yes it stops your own IP address being splattered across the Internet. I use my own VPN server, which runs on a PC at home, as standard when I'm using my iPad away from home. VPNs outside of work use have plenty of legitimate uses, security being the most common one.
