I've been using a VPN continuously since the UK introduced the "Snooper's Charter". VPN usage has risen hugely around the world and it's not uncommon to see (mis)advertising on TV from more disreputable companies like Sophos and NordVPN.
Over time, these positions will become increasingly untenable. If everyone uses a VPN or lives behind CGNAT then these kack-handed approaches to "security" won't be seen as being plausible – the more real users they block or inconvenience the greater the harm to their product and I am sure this is going to go up over time. It's not like a real attacker can vary their ipv4 addresses willy-nilly at any rate...
- a_r41 5y agoCould you please elaborate on NordVPN being disreputable? This is the first I'm hearing of this.
