All IP are baned!

[bitcoin]

After 2 or 3 years, I was finally able to access the forum. All my IPs in one country were blocked. The same happened with the second country. I bought a VPN — same result. I bought a SOCKS proxy — also blocked. Only after buying a second VPN was I able to get in. Why is this happening? What can I do?

HI bitcoin,

Well not much you can do when the government decides on a ban for a country.  You didn't mention the countries, but I'm often in China.  The Great Firewall blocks many, many things.  Many standard VPN's are also blocked.  Karing on GitHUb seems to get through mostly though.  I've tried the top two most often recommended VPN's 'Express' and 'Nord' - 'Nord' always failed, 'Express' could get through occasionally.

The other way to get some service is if your cellular service allows is a mobile hotspot.  Much harder to have a mobile service block.  Not going to be for long downloads though as many hotspot allowances are in the 5gig range or less.  T-Mobile does offer a 50Gig/monthly option.
