Running a VPN out of cloud services pretty much guarantees recaptcha prompts at most sites and denied access to most streaming platforms. Plus, paying per-GB adds up fast. If you're trying to evade region restriction or sail the high seas, stay away from cloud providers.
- jsheard 2y agoIn my experience dedicated VPN providers aren't really any better in that regard. Their IP addresses have abysmal reputations for exactly the same reason that public cloud IP addresses do, if an IP address is open for bad actors to use then they absolutely will use it.
- film42 2y agoI've had mixed success with evading regional locks for sports and other content with random VPN providers. Any cloud provider I've tried is immediately blocked. Pretty easy to do since they all publish their IP ranges. If you have friends around the world, an easy thing you can do is have a shared Tailscale network with exit nodes.
