@tinker@infosec.exchange hot take: the only thing I dislike as much as VPN marketing is people recommending Tor.
Because sure, they're right: unlike VPNs this is a good way to increase your anonymity online, provided you use it well.
It's also a great way to turn every single site into cloudflare's eternal whack-a-mole loop, rendering nearly everything unusable besides onion sites. That part is conveniently left out of every recommendation I come across.
