I was trying to follow a tutorial the other day and couldn't because the embedded images were on Imgur and it was so frustrating. It was the straw that broke the camel's back.
I caved, bought a 3 year PIA plan, had my router configured within about 2 minutes (actually impressed how straightforward Unifi made it) and now my browsing experience is fixed.
By putting it on your router, all your traffic is tunneled through the VPN, right?
I ask this in comparison to applying it at a finer-grained level, such as just a particular machine, or to an application, or to even a browser tab or particular domain. I feel like I would never want all my traffic VPN-ed because it is slow, there are greater privacy concerns of VPN operators, and my needs for VPNs are a cleanly-separable small chunk of my online activities.
Is it safe to transact with people who use freight forwarders in your experience? Do you lose any protections?
Out of fear, in my cases, I cancelled the auctions.
On second thought though, I wonder if it's actually the buyer using the service that is more at risk (introduction of 3rd party, more complex delivery, probably impossible to return, etc)
