Can I ask what you consider a "real job"? Trust me, it becomes progressively less fun to "play" a game because you have to, not because you want to, to keep up your income.

Some ISPs do not allow you to bring your own equipment, or if you do, they will charge you regardless per month for a "rental" of something you don't have from them.

Do you know whether this requires the person in store to enter an exact match/have you enter it on a pinpad, and that it is absolutely not removable in any way by any CSR, customer service, or other humans other than you knowing it and

From a US West POV: I don't believe I've ever seen that kind of path through PRC to be faster. Their peering ports are insanely oversubscribed and lossy at peak in LA/SJ, and half-decent traffic via CT's Next Generation

After 3 minutes, this just crashed the browser on an old AOSP stock Android device I have. The last time I implemented something like this as a proof-of-work (first party) solution, it fell apart instantly when someone wrote a dedicated bot

A horrendous abomination of scraping, fake browsers, storing your credentials, probably. Probably also grab your transaction data while there. This seems to be par for the course for US accounts, unfortunately. See: https://news
