I don’t think a VPN counts as SaaS, it’s something that costs the company money constantly to run, SaaS is more like the Adobe apps, which are not a service at all and it doesn’t cost them money for me to not uninstall it.
At that rate it just sounds like you’re trying to categorically redefine SaaS to just be the crappy ones, while excluding anything with a reason to be a service
If it’s an internet service that should be one, it’s not SaaS. I’m not redefining it, that’s just the definition. SaaS is just software, but as a (subscription) service.
