I was banned long ago from FB, I still sleep OK at night though

I have permanently deleted my FB account; X is more fun.

So, maybe don't use Ebay? It's a virtual white trash flea-market anyway, and not very trustworthy.

Yeah I know it's a trash fire, but there are some good bargains @ certain vendors when discount codes or sales are on.

I've never had any issues with eBay when using a VPN, other than occasionally having to complete a CAPTCHA. I'm always connected to a VPN and visit eBay daily.

Yeah? Strange I still have issues. And for my last buy I wasn't buying anything expensive just shaving cream. Oh well

You don’t have to keep a VPN on all the time, but a lot of people do because it’s just easier and adds a bit more privacy. It really depends on what you’re doing — if you’re on public Wi-Fi or handling anything personal, it’s usually better to have it on.

About which VPN is the best, there’s no single answer. Different ones work better for different people. It’s a good idea to look at things like speed, how easy it is to use, and whether it fits what you need it for.

I’d avoid completely free VPNs, though — they can be slow or not very reliable.

I don't keep VPN on all the time because I pay for 2 Gig fiber so why would I want to choke it down to 350 Mbit?
