I assume because Bitcoin has a public ledger and Monero doesn't. Its more than that, but that's the gist. Monero literally exists to offer additional privacy over Bitcoin.

No idea about those VPNs in particular, but I assume its a similar privacy issue, such as keeping logs...

I know what Monero is, it just wasn't clear to me how it relates to those VPNs
