OECK VPN are good at not being tagged as a VPN provider, give them a go.
Try Mysterium or other distributed VPN’s
then turn off the VPN when you want to use the sites that dont allow it…
Yeah I know a couple companies like private internet acces have “streaming friendly” VPN servers that are suppose to be lower probability of being blocked. I assume they are just changing ips more frequently or doing some other creative tricks
It’s true that using a known VPN server can be an easy way to get flagged. Your IP address is a dead giveaway. But even setting up your own private VPN might not be enough to fly under the radar. This suggests that some networks are using deeper packet inspection to analyze your traffic. They might be looking for patterns or anomalies that indicate you’re trying to mask your true location or activity. So, while VPNs can be helpful, it’s important to be aware of their limitations and the potential for detection.
I too have always used a VPN to access reddit but they have been getting more aggressive lately. One of my usual nodes is now blocked. That’s ignoring the now compulsory login shenanigins
Wouldn’t duckduckgo be a better engine than Bing?
It varies a lot depending on the node you pick, but you can easily switch to a faster one… Nodes marked with “R” are the ones you’re looking for, it stands for Residential.
Probably under a year ago. I’d be surprised if they blanket blocked them but I guess anything is possible
It’s difficult to blanket block cloud resources as companies use cloud resources themselves.
If you’re using something higher risk like Vultur, Digital Ocean, or Alibaba for hosting, it’ll be more likely that it’s blocked. Something like Azure, AWS, or Oracle is going to be significantly more likely to be allowed as they’re the top 3 cloud compute providers, at least in the U.S.
Or maybe switch to a site that respects your privacy instead.
Sorry for the late reply… I tend to get “better” (for my specific needs) results with Bing than DuckDuckGo. Google is best. But I’m so irritated by the verification process that I’d decide to just go with Bing most of the time.
Maybe I was just unlucky with my ip assigns
Ahhh I was using Vultr and Digital Ocean. That makes sense. Thanks!
