Anti-VPN Persecution

[Wreckless]

I recently did a lot of research on VPN and test drove a bunch. I came up with (probably what most people did) ExpressVPN, NordVPN, or SurfShark. I went with Nord but any of those major players seem to be pretty good. Cyber Ghost may be OK. I hear PIA is just OK as well.

True.

ExpressVPN is the best one imo.

But for the price, it's really hard to beat Surfshark. That's the one I have and i'm satisfied with it.

The one that would constantly ask me to verify if i'm a robot is IP Vanish. Doesn't matter which server I used it would constantly ask me to verifiy Captcha. So annoying. Surfshark does ask occasionally but I can live with it. ExpressVPN is just too expensive for the amount of times I actually use it.

Used PIA for a couple years, and noticed the increase as well. It became a pain in the ass, so I switched to Torguard. Has been fine ever since.

I wonder if newer/less well known VPNs performing better than PIA has to do with a smaller user base sharing IP addresses.

The smaller VPNs usually have less servers available so you're going to encounter the same problems.

The top dawgs like ExpressVPN and NordVPN are more expensive for a reason.

I’m sorry, but is that a picture of the Unabomber? He was an incel, BTW.

What does that have to do with anything?

It's a sign of the times.

I've used a VPN service for years, but lately I'm noticing that a huge number of websites, elements, browser applications, etc won't load or will function inconsistently while my VPN is on (Amazon, Google Pay, basically all Cloudflare protected sites, among others).

This is to say nothing of needing to complete a series of twenty-nine million Captcha things every time I access certain sites, which are too small and grainy to be easily seen and often have ambiguous cases. Sometimes a few pixels of the item in question counts as a square to be selected and sometimes it won't, and so forth.

I'm sure there's a bunch of technical excuses, but I don't accept them because all of this shit used to work fine, fuck them. I assume it's some loose conspiracy to persecute VPN users and punish them for attempting to have privacy.

It’s obvious mail bombs here are the answer.

He was also a fckin genius and slide under the fbi’s radar for almost two decades.

Reported for being too based

Yes. But most of all, he killed people in the most bitch ass way possible. He was a coward and an incel. He should not be revered.

Sounds like a guerilla.

Maybe if there were an actual war being fought. But it’s not as if he couldn’t have just hung out at his cabin, off the grid, and done everything he wanted to do. It’s just that he wanted notoriety. So he killed people. Guerrillas fight against actually oppressive regimes.

If his beliefs are true, then his actions were just. If his beliefs are not true, then his actions were unjust. So it's a question of his ideas and not of his actions.

Lol. No. It doesn’t matter how much of his own bullshit he believes. This isn’t some exercise in relativism in your junior college critical thinking class. He was in no way oppressed. He was not fighting against an occupying force. Just get that shit out of here.

You've just made a bunch of claims about his ideas. Bad ones, but you're implicitly agreeing with me, regardless of your impairments.

I made no claims about his ideas. Nice try. That’s the last post I’m wasting on this bullshit.

"He was not being oppressed", "he was not fighting an occupying force", are both ideological claims, but I'll concede they shouldn't be considered as anything more than the verbal eruptions of a retard.
