Interesting they didn’t look at usage by Baby Boomers. I’m in that crowd and use a VPN on my devices. I use a Synology router that makes it easy to install a VPN on it, but I decided to go with device level VPN.
Last week, for the first time ever, a web site told me to disable my VPN if I wanted to browse their site. I can’t remember what site it was.
That’s happened a lot recently…before my VPN fell overboard into that lake with everyone’s guns.
My online bank used to be inaccessible if I was using a NordVPN server outside the US, but lately that’s not been an issue. I’m surprised the website was able to tell you were using a VPN. My guess is that some websites may know of some of the most commonly used VPN server IPs and be able to block them. Does anyone more knowledgeable know how a website can block a VPN and if there are steps around that?
Yahoo News and YouTube have been telling me to disable VPN
I’ll just not visit their site
Internet is becoming complicated and I’m losing interest in it
I’m no longer compelled to search all day long looking for the end of the internet
