Semi related but there has been so much anti VPN stuff of late on the web. I blame the big vpn providers for their miss marketing and poor ads from sponsoring deals. The repercussions are making it out like vpns are not useful. Noone thought they were silver bullet before. now they are made out to be a waste of money? All the “you don’t need a VPN” stuff needs to stop. Im concerned people are gonna stop caring about anonymity and enhancing privacy with VPN.
