VPNs are not a solution but get suggested almost every time. I don't think it needs to be said on HN but if your using a VPN for access to a free and open Internet then there is a wider unaddressed issue. How long until VPN's are banned and you get a knock on the door for using one like in China?
Change your government, support one that supports an open and free Internet.
- actsasbuffoon 9y agoI use a VPN for everyday browsing, and it's annoying as hell. Whenever a site won't load, I don't know if it's because the site is slow or the VPN is slow. Sometimes the VPN disconnects without warning. Juggling between my personal VPN and my work VPN is a pain. Using VPN on mobile devices is even more painful. I live in a supposedly free country. I shouldn't have to do this, but corporations have taken my country hostage.
