Fucking this shit right here!

No, I promise my VPN is doing nothing to your site that you didn't design your site to do when encountering a VPN. It's literally just a diversion through a tunnel to a network just like the one between mine and yours with some encryption at the server end before it sends it to you. If your site can't handle my private information being encrypted, that sounds like a bug you should probably fix.

"An ad blocker is preventing this page from loading."

No, my #adblocker is preventing your #ADs from loading. The fact that the REST of your page refuses to load if the ads dont load, well that sounds like a YOU problem.

Oh, look! The Olympic Committee, in a move shocking absolutely no one, takes a stance straight out of the last century, clinging to #outdated #norms like they’re vinyl records in a Spotify world. 🎶🙄 Meanwhile, #NYT insists on letting you read its content only if you disable that precious ad blocker, because who doesn’t love ads more than #news, right? 📜💰
