Why can't I access voat.co or talk.lol from my VPN?

Well voat.co is offline, that could be why.

Have you tried voat.xyz?

Have you tried switching VPN locations? Some countries are probably blocked for sure.

Yes, tried voat.xyz. Also tried talk.lol.

Can't switch locations. VPN only allows one.

VPN out is in Scandinavia.

Based in Canada and they log data. I wouldn’t touch it.

[ - ] SocksOnCats [op] 1 point 3.6 yearsSep 16, 2021 20:20:41 ago (+1/-0)

Hmm. When I got them, they specifically did NOT log data. Maybe that changed?

So what VPN would you suggest?

Thanks I'll check it out.

The company that owns them Netcrawled LLC has it in their privacy policy that they do log information required by law. Maybe btguard says they don’t, but their umbrella says they do.

Honestly idk anymore on being 100% as to recommend to someone. I just wouldn’t touch any that host in 5eyes countries.

Wow I didn't catch that. Thank you. Guess I'm changing VPNs.

Okay two questions: 1) What VPN do you use? 2) What countries should I look for or avoid?

I've looked at the analytics concerning your account and it seems that no one trusts you with their cats.

[ - ] SocksOnCats [op] 3 points 3.6 yearsSep 16, 2021 18:33:37 ago (+3/-0)

Cool. Where can I see those analytics?

Click the light-bulb twice, while simultaneously pressing B A, B A, select, start.

[ - ] SocksOnCats [op] 3 points 3.6 yearsSep 16, 2021 19:22:46 ago (+3/-0)

Tried that. Screen started flashing maniacally and now my asshole hurts. What happened?

[ - ] Ozark 0 points 3.6 yearsSep 16, 2021 19:25:23 ago (+1/-1)

You just got Contra-ed, sorry about the asshole.

When a vpn is used for abuse it gets banned. If you tell me which VPN it is I could unblock it.

Wut dns service are u using??

[ - ] ParnellsUprising 1 point 3.6 yearsSep 16, 2021 20:12:09 ago (+1/-0)

The DNS should be linked to the VPN provider, or there is no point in using that provider, as you are not receiving any protection if you are leaking your DNS requests.

With that said, OP's VPN provider must be shite.

Comcast?

[ - ] ghostofvoatspast 0 points 3.6 yearsSep 16, 2021 18:22:25 ago (+0/-0)

take a guess.

[ - ] SocksOnCats [op] 0 points 3.6 yearsSep 16, 2021 18:30:50 ago (+0/-0)

Umm... because they don't want people accessing the site from VPNs?

But then why not?

[ - ] NeoNazirite 2 points 3.6 yearsSep 16, 2021 19:02:41 ago (+2/-0)

Maybe Israel just bought your VPN provider.

[ - ] SocksOnCats [op] 1 point 3.6 yearsSep 16, 2021 19:22:16 ago (+1/-0)

I would imagine that's likely. I should check in to that.
