I see ads for these devices and the possibility of suffocating in your sleep just terrifies me. Sure most of the time you might wake up but still :/ Fortunately CPAP therapy works fantastically for me, and the CPAP masks have anti asph

I am not an expert in this so I can't explain it in any truly deep detail, and you might be right in terms of "Masking" the identity of the card number if you think this is a privacy feature, but there is much more to it than

Outside of malicious usage, this technique has also been used by VPN providers to support using Video services (Netflix, Prime Video, etc) in other countries. That was certainly the case a few years ago but I am not sure how prevalent that
