I use a VPN 99% of the time, i turn it off when i need to access archive.org, or watch something on the public braordcasters streaming platform
yeah sure the captchas are annoying but it's not like websites load within 10 seconds anymore
I only wish protonVPN was a good as the one i used previously, but i cancelled it cause it had ties to israel
