I haven’t been able to post anything for the last two days. I don’t know if I was banned for a bit or not since I received no notice or warning.

If it wasn’t a ban what happened?

    You’re the one who made the argument that there were plenty of uses. The onus is on you to back up your suppositions. Not me.

      I’m not who you originally asked, but one of the things other than torrenting that I use a VPN for is bypassing arbitrary geo-restrictions on websites. A lot of (mostly US) websites don’t allow you to access them if you aren’t in the country, or in some cases, if you don’t live in the right state.

        I’ve used it for that too, but even that’s going away. Pretty soon I think ISP’s (or governments) will clamp down on VPN’s. Or they will make the argument that if you want to use a VPN, then you can only use “THEIR” VPN
