[QUOTE="plat, post: 895823, member: 74969"] Well, I got this little Tweet and went to the link. Nothing really innovative or Earth-shattering but it did make me feel justified in NOT using a vpn. Tried one once and it slowed things down too much. My ISP offers a vpn which is amusing because in its fine print that puts you to sleep before you reach that section, it discloses that it mines and sells your browsing data. (off topic: I cannot dump this ISP fast enough. COVID delayed another competitor from establishing itself in my nabe--I can be patient and wait, as long as the end is in sight :mad:) So, no vpn for me but I understand some of the good reasons people use them.
