I've been surfing the internet almost exclusively via VPN for a very long time and the past few weeks have become a pain. Google services and other big companies like Amazon apparently increased measures against the use of VPN. I had used dedicated (public) servers for different sites for years without problems and suddenly Amazon and other big companies stopped accepting my usual payment methods like bank transfer. Instead I should use gift cards (!!!). Most servers of the big VPN providers like Proton, Air and other companies are blacklisted and therefore captcha have become a common occurrence. Maybe this will become our new home for the future: https://qubes-os.discourse.group/ Or, like unman suggested, use google groups like a mailing list without ever logging in. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
