What is VPC and how can they launch a cost feature for me without asking if I want to pay for it?
VPCs are a fundamental feature of AWS and you should really do some brief research on them if you’re going to use AWS.

Did you have an elastic IP you got billed for? That charge started recently.

This doesn't make any sense and the link doesn't go anywhere useful.

AWS Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is the name for the virtual network(s) hosted cloud resources occupy. Most AWS services require a VPC and you get a default VPC when you set up an AWS account. As far as I know (after using AWS for many years) a VPC does not cost anything, though some features (public IPv4 addresses, multi-region VPCs, etc.) may have additional charges.
