YouTube won’t let me watch this video with my VPN on. Is this a new thing?

    I watch YouTube all the time over Mullvad. It doesn’t let me watch on the website without signing in tho.

      it’s an absolute pain in the ass with mullvad. only a few servers like ireland, greece and nigeria work.

        Huh, I’ll keep that in mind. Usually I just say fuck YouTube and go about my business. 😂

      I got that same prompt in my house ip now, can’t use youtube on my TV or anything, I guess it detected my plex server downloading videos since I usually watch from there

        I use Proton for email. Don’t love the CEOs opinions, so not really interesting in expanding their services. Sticking with the email for now, but we’ll see what the future holds.
