Does anybody else get this message when trying to access articles?

I’ve updated bypass paywall and it’s made no difference. I’ve also disabled my vpn and emptied my cache to little avail.

How do we get around this new problem please?

thanks

    More and more sites are becoming hostile to VPN’s and flagging the IP’s of major providers. I’ve been encountering this more and more with proton VPN, though generally it still works fine

      most sites, including social media will block vpn, because the most common one are abused asf on social media sites, like reddit. its not hard to figure out which vpn. i think thats why ban evaders use mobile rotating proxies instead, not cheap if you run hordes of accounts. on anyone social media platform, or site.

        They also don’t like the idea that they can’t scrape every single piece of data at all times from you at will
