I was like 3 paragraphs into a writeup about response times, latency, probabilities, etc but I realized you already have all the information and can’t be reasoned with.
You do know what I mean by “response time” right? The recieving computer gets the packets and sends word back. NOT the VPN node, the VPN is not unencrypting traffic to emulate a real computer, it’s instead just relaying the packets TO YOUR MACHINE. VPNs are not the perfect black box void immune to complicated analysis.
Do you not think a VPN will affect response time?? I implore you re-read the paper you keep referring to because they spell it out pretty basically what they are doing - and finding a person’s actual physical location behind a VPN is not it.
I am not claiming a VPN is a perfect or complete solution… The modern web has an absolute ton of ways to track you even through a VPN, but CPV isn’t it.

VPN will effect response time and that effect on response time is easily measurable.
