Make sure your router has built-in VPN support folks. That way when some shit like this does eventually pass all your traffic can flow over the VPN for your entire network.
I’ve had this setup and would recommend but since I’ve switched from OpenVPN to Wiregaurd I’m getting constantly hit by cloud flare verification s and captchas… and my IP hasn’t changed once since. Wondering if that’s just the environment now or specific to my protocol change. Any readers’ experiences?
I have this all the time when I'm on my mullvald vpn. Makes me want to not use it half the time :(
That is the goal, I guess, big tech companies don’t like if one protects their privacy..
Best of all captchas which require human interaction are completely redundant anyways. From a security perspective anyways (blocking bots generating huge amounts of traffic)... For training your next LLM however...
