Questions
Should I switch my Coursera country?
Only if you can pay in Turkey. Cheapest dated Plus is Turkey at $14.60 versus $58.99 in the US. A VPN without a matching payment method does not complete checkout.
Is a cheap Coursera login on a key site safer?
No. Shared credentials get flagged and revoked, and certificates accrue to the paying account - a borrowed login means the certificate is not yours even while it works.
Does a VPN lower Coursera Plus?
No. The App Store price follows your Apple ID storefront and coursera.org uses your billing address; neither accepts an IP change as proof of residence.
